Displaying
Interfaces
You can display a table that shows all IP interfaces configured for each
switching module in the system, including their parameter settings.
To display IP interface information:
1From the Administration Console top-level menu, enter:
ip interface display
2Enter the slot(s) of the switching module(s) for which you want to display
the interface information. Separate non-consecutive ports with commas (,).
Enter a consecutive series of slots using a dash (-).
As shown in the following example, the current configuration appears in the
display. It contains IP forwarding and RIP information for that slot as well as
the IP interface information.
Defining an

mask, broadcast address, cost, and the collection of switching module ports
associated with the interface.
To define an IP interface:
1From the top level of the Administration Console, enter:
ip interface define
2Enter the slot of the switching module for which you want to define an
interface.
You are prompted for the interface’s parameters. To use the value in
brackets, press [Return] at the prompt.
