10.Configure an IP interface to run SSL over

To configure an IP interface that SSL will be run over, first enable IP using the command:

ENABLE IP

To make VLAN1 the IP interface, and 172.30.1.105 the interface’s IP address, use the command:

ADD IP INTERFACE=vlan1 IP=172.30.1.105

To add an IP route on this interface with a next hop of 172.30.1.254, use the command:

ADD IP ROUTE=0.0.0.0 INTERFACE=vlan1 NEXT=172.30.1.254

For this example to succeed, you would have to log in as "cipher" rather than "manager" when connecting to the switch with a web browser.
