First-Time Configuration
4143W7774, May 2007
3. At the prompt, enter y to enable the default gateway, or n to leave it disabled:
4. The system prompts you to configure another default gateway:
Repeat the steps in this section until all default gateways have been configured. When all
default gateways have been configured, press <Enter> without specifying any number.
IP Routing
When IP interfaces are configured for the various subnets attached to your switch, IP routing
between them can be performed entirely within the switch. This eliminates the need to send
inter-subnet communication to an external router device. Routing on more complex networks,
where subnets may not have a direct presence on the
GbE Switch Module, can be accomplished
through configuring static routes or by letting the switch learn routes dynamically.
This part of the Setup program prompts you to configure the various routing parameters.
1. At the prompt, enable or disable forwarding for IP Routing:
Enter
y to enable IP forwarding. To disable IP forwarding, enter n.To keep the current setting,
press <Enter>.
