Group Configuration screen and create or modify a VLAN group (chapter 2 “Configuring
Port Groups”). To configure the unicast or multicast routing protocols, select the IP
address for a specific interface from the Subnet Configuration menu (chapter 2 “Subnet
Configuration”), and then select “Advanced” configuration from the Modify Subnet
screen (see chapter 2 “Modifying an IP Interface”).

Parameter Description
VLAN The VLAN associated with this IP interface.
Select Use this option to create or modify a VLAN under the “Port Group
Configuration” menu as described below.
IP Address The IP address associated with the specified VLAN interface. By
convention, the last three digits should be set to “254” to readily
distinguish this device as a router port.
Subnet Mask A template that identifies the address bits in the host address used for
routing to specific subnets. Each bit that corresponds to a “1” is part of
the network / subnet number, and each bit that corresponds to “0” is part
of the host number.
Proxy ARP Enables or disables Proxy ARP for the interface. This feature allows the
switch forward an ARP request from a node in the attached subnetwork
(that does not have routing or a default gateway configured) to a remote
subnetwork. (See “Proxy ARP” on chapter 4.)
Note that Proxy ARP must be enabled globally for the switch before this
setting can take effect. (See “Protocol Configuration” on chapter 2.)
RIP Routing Information Protocol for unicast routing.
OSPF Open Shortest Path First unicast routing protocol.
DVMRP Distance-Vector Multicast Routing Protocol.
