To determine the configuration of an interface, use the show config command in INTERFACE mode or the
various show interface commands in EXEC mode.
Configuring Layer 3 (Interface) Mode
To assign an IP address, use the following commands.
• Enable the interface.
INTERFACE mode
no shutdown
• Configure a primary IP address and mask on the interface.
INTERFACE mode
ip address ip-address mask [secondary]
The ip-address must be in dotted-decimal format (A.B.C.D) and the mask must be in slash format (/xx).
Add the keyword secondary if the IP address is the interface’s backup IP address.
Example of the show ip interface Command
You can only configure one primary IP address per interface. You can configure up to 255 secondary IP
addresses on a single interface.
To view all interfaces to see with an IP address assigned, use the show ip interfaces brief command in
EXEC mode as shown in View Basic Interface Information.
To view IP information on an interface in Layer 3 mode, use the show ip interface command in EXEC
Privilege mode.

Egress Interface Selection (EIS)
EIS allows you to isolate the management and front-end port domains by preventing switch-initiated traffic
routing between the two domains. This feature provides additional security by preventing flooding attacks on
front-end ports. The following protocols support EIS: DNS, FTP, NTP, RADIUS, sFlow, SNMP, SSH, Syslog,
TACACS, Telnet, and TFTP. This feature does not support sFlow on stacked units.
When you enable this feature, all management routes (connected, static, and default) are copied to the
management EIS routing table. Use the management route command to add new management routes to
