Configuring a Default Gateway on a Catalyst 5000
Before IP management from another subnet or network can take place through Telnet, the sending device
must know the routers that are connected to the local network to forward data for destinations outside the local
network. Just as an end−user interface needs to have a defined default gateway, a switch needs to know the
address of the interface of the route processor connected to the local subnet.
To define the gateway, in Global Configuration mode use the following command combined with the route
processor or router IP address that is acting as the default gateway for the network:
Coriolis5000(config)# ip default−gateway 130.77.20.1
Verifying the IP Configuration on a Catalyst 5000
You can verify the IP configuration of the switch by using the show ip command:
Coriolis5000#show ip
IP Address: 130.77.20.15
Subnet Mask: 255.255.254.0
Default Gateway: 130.77.20.1
Management VLAN: 1
Domain name: coriolis.com
Name server 1: 130.77.17.190
Name server 2: 130.77.16.191
HM server : Enabled
HTTP port : 80
RIP : enabled
Enabling RIP on an RSM
To assign an IP routing protocol and network number, perform the following steps:
Assign a routing protocol (RIP) to the RSM. To do this, use the following commands in Global
Configuration mode:
RSM1(config)#ip routing
RSM1(config)#router rip
1.
Assign a network number to the route processor on the RSM by using the network command
followed by the network number just as you would use with an external Cisco router’s interface:
RSM1(config−router)#network 172.16.0.0
2.
Assign a VLAN to an IP address:3.
RSM1(config−router)#interface vlan 100
RSM1(config−if)#ip address 172.16.1.1 255.255.255.0
RSM1(config−if)#^Z
RSM1#
