INTERFACE mode
ip address ip-address mask
• Enable the interface.
INTERFACE mode
no shutdown
• The interface is the management interface.

description
Example of the show interface and show ip route Commands
To display the conguration for a given port, use the show interface command in EXEC Privilege mode, as shown in the following
example. To display the routing table, use the show ip route command in EXEC Privilege mode.
VLAN Interfaces
VLANs are logical interfaces and are, by default, in Layer 2 mode. Physical interfaces and port channels can be members of VLANs.
For more information about VLANs and Layer 2, see and .
NOTE: To monitor VLAN interfaces, use Management Information Base for Network Management of TCP/IP-based internets:
MIB-II (RFC 1213).
NOTE: You cannot simultaneously use egress rate shaping and ingress rate policing on the same VLAN.
Dell EMC Networking OS supports Inter-VLAN routing (Layer 3 routing in VLANs). You can add IP addresses to VLANs and use them in
routing protocols in the same manner that physical interfaces are used. For more information about conguring dierent routing protocols,
refer to the chapters on the specic protocol.
A consideration for including VLANs in routing protocols is that you must congure the no shutdown command. (For routing trac to
ow, you must enable the VLAN.)
NOTE
: You cannot assign an IP address to the default VLAN, which is VLAN 1 (by default). To assign another VLAN ID to the
default VLAN, use the default vlan-id vlan-id command.
To assign an IP address to an interface, use the following command.
• Congure an IP address and mask on the interface.
INTERFACE mode
ip address ip-address mask [secondary]
– ip-address mask: enter an address in dotted-decimal format (A.B.C.D). The mask must be in slash format (/24).
– secondary: the IP address is the interface’s backup IP address. You can congure up to eight secondary IP addresses.

Loopback Interfaces
A Loopback interface is a virtual interface in which the software emulates an interface. Packets routed to it are processed locally.
Because this interface is not a physical interface, you can congure routing protocols on this interface to provide protocol stability. You can
place Loopback interfaces in default Layer 3 mode.
To congure, view, or delete a Loopback interface, use the following commands.
• Enter a number as the Loopback interface.
