Cisco Systems ASASSMCSC10K9 quick start Using the Msfc as a Directly-Connected Router

4Using the MSFC as a Directly-Connected Router

If you want to use the MSFC as a directly-connected router (for example, as the default gateway connected to the ASASM outside interface), then add an ASASM VLAN interface to the MSFC as a switched virtual interface (SVI). By default, you can add only one SVI; to add multiple SVIs, and understand the caveats for multiple SVIs, see the configuration guide on Cisco.com.

Perform the following steps at the switch CLI:

	Command	Purpose
Step 1
	interface vlan vlan_number	Adds a VLAN interface to the MSFC.
	Example:
	Router(config)# interface vlan 100
Step 2
	ip address address mask	Sets the IP address for this interface on the
		MSFC.
	Example:
	Router(config)# ip address 192.168.1.2
	255.255.255.0
Step 3
	no shutdown	Enables the interface.
	Example:
	Router(config)# no shutdown
