SSR Command Line Interface Reference Manual 255

interface create ip

Parameters

Name of the IP interface; for example, int4.

address-netmask

IP address and netmask of this interface. You can specify the address and mask

information using the traditional format (example: 10.1.2.3/255.255.0.0) or the CIDR

format (example: 10.1.2.3/16). If you specify an address without mask information,

the SSR uses the natural mask for the address ( /8 for Class A, /16 for Class B or /24

for Class C).

vlan <name>

Name of the VLAN associated with this interface.

port <port>

Port associated with this interface.

mtu <num>

Sets the Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) for this interface.

Sets the state of the interface to up. (This is the default state.)

down

Sets the state of the interface to down.

output-mac-encapsulation

The output MAC encapsulation associated with this interface. You can specify one of

the following:

– ethernet_ii (the default)

– ethernet_snap

mac-addr <MACaddr-spec>

Sets the MAC address for this interface. You can specify one of the following:

– A specific MAC address – specify the entire MAC address as follows:

xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx

– An offset from the base MAC address in the pool – specify the offset. For example,

to specify an offset of 10 from the base MAC address, enter “10”. For example, if

the base MAC address is 00:E0:63:02:00:00 and you specify an offset of 10, the SSR

assigns MAC address 00:E0:63:02:00:0A to the interface.

– The base MAC address – specify the basemac keyword. This is the default.
