interface create ipx

Purpose

Create an IPX interface.

Format

interface create ipx <InterfaceName> address <ipxAddr>

vlan <name> | port <port>

[output-mac-encapsulation <MACencap>] [up|down]

[mac-addr <MACaddr-spec>]

Mode

Configure

Description

The interface create ipx command creates and configures an IPX interface. Configuration

of an IPX interface can include information such as the interface’s name, IPX address,

VLAN, port, and output MAC encapsulation. You can also create an interface in the

disabled (down) state instead of the default enabled (up) state.

The SSR is pre-allocated a pool of 64 MAC addresses. By default, each new IPX interface is

automatically configured with the lowest MAC address in the pool (the “base” MAC

address). However, you can assign an interface a different MAC address by using the

mac-addr option.

Parameters

Name of the IPX interface; for example, int9.

address <ipxAddr>

IPX address of this interface.

vlan <name>

Name of the VLAN associated with this interface.

port <port>

Port associated with this interface.
