IP Interface Configuration Change

The procedure for defining an IP interface has changed in this revision. When you define an IP interface, you specify several interface characteristics, as well as the index for the VLAN that is associated with the interface.

You must first define a VLAN, as described in Appendixes C and D, before you can define an associated IP VLAN interface on an EFSM, ESM, TMM, FESM, or FSM. You can define an IP interface on an LMM+ without first configuring a VLAN.
