Chapter38 Configuring IP Unicast Routing Enabling IP Unicast Routing
Enabling IP Unicast Routing
By default, the switch is in Layer 2 switching mode and IP routing is disabled. To use the Layer3
capabilities of the switch, you must enable IP routing.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to enable IP routing:
Use the no ip routing global configuration command to disable routing.
This example shows how to enable IP routing using RIP as the routing pro toc ol:
Switch# configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
Switch(config)# ip routing
Switch(config)# router rip
