Example
Configure the IP address for the management port:
Switch:1>enable
Switch:1#configure terminal
Switch:1(config)#interface mgmtethernet mgmt
Switch:1(config-if)#ip address 192.0.2.31 255.255.255.0
Variable definitions
Use the data in the following table to use the ip address command.
Variable Value
<A.B.C.D> <A.B.C.D> Specifies the IP address followed by the subnet
mask.
Use the data in the following table to use the ipv6 interface address command.
Variable Value
WORD<0-255> Specifies the IPv6 address and prefix length.
Configuring Ethernet ports with Autonegotiation
Configure Ethernet ports so they operate optimally for your network conditions. These ports use the
Small Form Factor Pluggable plus (SFP+) transceivers. The default is enabled for VSP 8000 Series
but disabled for VSP 7200 Series.
About this task
Important:
• When you use 1 Gigabit Ethernet SFP transceivers on VSP 7254XSQ, the software
disables auto-negotiation on the port:
- If you use 1 Gbps fiber SFP transceivers, the remote end must also have auto-
negotiation disabled.
- If you use 1 Gbps copper SFP transceivers, the remote end must have auto-negotiation
enabled. If not, the link will not be established.
• Alll ports that belong to the same MLT or Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) group
must use the same port speed. In the case of MLTs, the software does not enforce this.
• Release 4.0 is lenient in allowing mismatched autonegotiation settings between local ports
and their remote link partners.
• VOSS 4.1 and later software requires the same autonegotiation settings on link partners to
avoid incorrect declaration of link status. Mismatched settings can cause the links to stay
down. Ensure the autonegotiation settings between local ports and their remote link
partners match before upgrading software Release 4.0 to VOSS 4.1 or later.
