8-4 Routing Commands
MAC Address Is the burnedin physical address of the specified interface. The
format is 6 two-digit hexadecimal numbers that are separated by
colons.
Maximum Transmission Unit Is a number representing the maximum transmission unit (MTU)
size (in bytes) for the interface. The default value is 1500. For the
standard implementation the maximum value is 1500 and the
minimum value is 576 bytes. This value was configured into the
unit.
Encapsulation Type Is the encapsulation type for the specified interface. The types
are: Ethernet or SNAP.
config interface encaps
This command configures the link layer encapsulation type for the packet. Acceptable values for
<encapstype> are Ethernet and SNAP. The default is Ethernet.
Format config interface encaps <slot.port> <ether-
net/snap>
Restrictions Routed frames are always Ethernet encapsulated when a frame is
routed to a VLAN.
config interface routing
This command enables or disables routing for an interface.
The value for <mode> is either enable or disable.
The current value for this function is displayed under "Show ip Interface" labeled as "Routing
Mode".
Default disable
Format config interface routing <slot.port>
<enable/disable>
config ip interface mtu
This command sets the default maximum transmission unit (MTU) size (in bytes) for the interface.
For the standard implementation, the range of <mtusize> is a valid integer between 576-1500.
Default 1500
