Figure 21. Binding of an Ethernet port to an IP interface

This procedure describes how to bind the Ethernet port to an already existing IP interface

Mode: Configure

Step	Command	Purpose
1	node(cfg)#port ethernet slot port	Enters Ethernet port configuration
		mode for the interface on slot and
		port
2	node(prt-eth)[slot/port]#bind interface name router	Binds the Ethernet port to the already
		existing IP interface if-name

Example: Binding an Ethernet port to an IP interface

The following example shows how to bind the Ethernet port on slot 0 and port 0 to an already existing IP interface lan.

node(cfg)#port ethernet 0 0 node(prt-eth)[0/0]#bind interface lan router

Multiple IP addresses on Ethernet ports

It is possible to use multiple IP addresses on an Ethernet port by binding the port to multiple IP interfaces. Each of the IP interfaces uses an IP address of one of the subnets on the Ethernet ports.

The procedures below demonstrate how IP addresses of two different networks can be used on an Ethernet port. However, if necessary any number of IP interfaces can be bound to an Ethernet port.
