Layer 3 Global Advanced Settings

The L3 Global Advanced Settings window allows the user to enable and disable Layer 3 settings and functions from a single window.The full settings and descriptions for these functions will appear later in this section.To view this window, open the Configuration folder and then the Layer 3 IP Networking folder and click on the L3 Global Advanced Settings link to access the following window.

		Figure 6- 84. L3 Global Advanced Settings window
The user may set the following:
	Parameter	Description
	DVMRP State	The user may globally enable or disable the Distance Vector Multicast Routing Protocol (DVMRP) function by
	PIM-DM State	using the pull down menu.
		The user may globally enable or disable the Protocol Independent Multicast – Dense Mode (PIM-DM) function
	RIP State	by using the pull down menu.
		The user may globally enable or disable the Routing Information Protocol (RIP) function by using the pull down
	OSPF State	menu.
		The user may globally enable or disable the Open Shortest Path first (OSPF) function by using the pull down
	ARP Aging Time (0-65535)	menu.
		The user may globally set the maximum amount of time, in minutes, that an Address Resolution Protocol (ARP)
		entry can remain in the Switch’s ARP table, without being accessed, before it is dropped from the table.The
		value may be set in the range of 0-65535 minutes with a default setting of 20 minutes.

Setting Up IP Interfaces

Each VLAN must be configured prior to setting up the VLAN’s corresponding IP interface.

An example is presented below:

VLAN Name	VID	Switch Ports
System (default)	1	5, 6, 7, 8, 21, 22, 23, 24
Engineer	2	9, 10, 11, 12
Marketing	3	13, 14, 15, 16
Finance	4	17, 18, 19, 20
Sales	5	1, 2, 3, 4
Backbone	6	25, 26

Table 6- 5.VLAN Example – Assigned Ports

In this case, six IP interfaces are required, so a CIDR notation of 10.32.0.0/11 (or a 11-bit) addressing scheme will work.This addressing scheme will give a subnet mask of 11111111.11100000.00000000.00000000 (binary) or 255.224.0.0 (decimal).

Using a 10.xxx.xxx.xxx IP address notation, the above example would give 6 network addresses and 6 subnets.

Any IP address from the allowed range of IP addresses for each subnet can be chosen as an IP address for an IP interface on the switch. For this example, we have chosen the next IP address above the network address for the IP interface’s IP Address:
