Example

The following example shows how to configure VLAN 1 on IP address 182.127.63.1 255.255.255.0 as a routing interface.

C3(su)->router C3(su)->router>enable C3(su)->router#configure Enter configuration commands:

C3(su)->router(Config)#interface vlan 1 C3(su)->router(Config-if(Vlan 1))#ip address 182.127.63.1 255.255.255.0 C3(su)->router(Config-if(Vlan 1))#no shutdown

Enabling Router Configuration Modes

The SecureStack C3 CLI provides different modes of router operation for issuing a subset of commands from each mode. Table 18‐2 describes these modes of operation.
