Subinterface ID

Applies only to subinterfaces.

 

The ID number of the subinterface.

 

 

IP

The source of the IP address for the interface:

 

Static IP—Defines a static IP address and subnet mask for the interface.

 

Enter this information in the fields that appear below the option.

 

Note You can define the mask using either dotted decimal (for example,

 

 

255.255.255.255) or CIDR notation (/32). See Contiguous and

 

 

Discontiguous Network Masks, page 9-146.

 

DHCP—The interface obtains its IP address dynamically from a DHCP

 

server.

 

PPPoE—The router automatically negotiates its own registered IP

 

address from a central server (via PPP/IPCP). The following interface

 

types support PPPoE:

 

Async

 

Serial

 

High-Speed Serial Interface (HSSI)

 

Dialer

 

BRI, PRI (ISDN)

 

Virtual template

 

Multilink

 

Unnumbered—The interface obtains its IP address from a different

 

interface on the device. Choose an interface from the Interface list. This

 

option can be used with point-to-point interfaces only.

 

Note Layer 2 interfaces do not support IP addresses. Deployment fails if

 

 

you define an IP address on a Layer 2 interface.
