4.Modify the following DCB port parameters as required:

•Interface Mode - Select None or L2. For external ports, the L3 interface mode displays in addition to None or L2. If you select L3 as the interface mode, the IP/Netmask field is enabled and you can then assign the primary and secondary IP addresses.

L2 mode is enabled if you select L2 as the interface mode. If a DCB port is enabled on the 10 Gbps DCB/FC switch module, the L2 mode is disabled.

L3 mode appears only for the external ports of embedded platforms.

NOTE

You can change the interface mode from L2 to None only if the port is assigned to the default VLAN 1.

•IP/Netmask - The netmask is used to divide an IP address into subnets. It specifies which portion of the IP address represents the network and which portion represents the host, and can only be configured if the interface mode is L3.

Primary - The primary IP address assigned to a 10 Gbps DCB/FC switch module.

Secondary - The secondary IP address is optional. Secondary IP addresses are helpful when the interface port is part of multiple subnets.
