Tab le 11-5 describes the commands used to configure the IP route table.
enable bootprelay Enables the forwarding of BOOTP and
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol
(DHCP) requests.
enable ipforwarding {vlan <name>} Enables IP routing for one or all VLANs. If
no argument is provided, enables routing
for all VLANs that have been configured
with an IP address. The default setting for
ipforwarding is disabled.
enable ipforwarding broadcast {vlan <name>} Enables forwarding IP broadcast traffic for
one or all VLANs. If no argument is
provided, enables broadcast forwarding for
all VLANs. To enable, ipforwarding
must be enabled on the VLAN. The default
setting is disabled.
enable loopback-mode vlan [<name> | all] Enables a loopback mode on an interface.
If loopback is enabled, the router interface
remains in the UP state, even if no ports
are defined in the VLAN. As a result, the
subnet is always advertised as one of the
available routes.
enable multinetting Enables IP multinetting on the system.
