Set IP address of switch using 10.0.10a

LudvigB — Wed, 02 Aug 2023 14:12:11 GMT

Hello,

I am using a ICX7550 that i have updated to the lastest FastIron 10.0.10a.
from reading i understand that the ip adress is handeled differently in 10.x versions, and i cant quite figure it out.

I want to add an ip address to one interface that is NOT an management interface. that i want to be able to access the system network and tftp to the switch on the same interface. I believe you call it an inband port? I want to be able to access both my network and the switch from the same port.

The manual suggest to look in the Hardware installation guide. but that guide instructs to enter configuration mode for the interface and write "ip adress x.x.x.x/24" which to my understanding only works for 9.0.x and not for version 10.
so how do i achieve this setting of IP on the new firmware (10.0.10a)?

Thanks!

Hi LudvigB

Thank you for reaching up. I suppose you are trying to configure ip address on the interface. Please refer few links mentioned below they will help you with more details on configuration on 10.0.10 version code.

Link to routing configuration Guide: Refer "IP addressing" chapter from Pg 41

I hope this helps.

Thanks

Hello!
thanks for the reading recommendations!
I managed to achieve the fuctionality desired by configuring a virtual interface on vlan1.

But if you don't mind, can you help me understand.
I try and follow the instructions in chapter "Assigning an IPv4 Address to an Ethernet Port" on page 49. And I am not able get the command "ip address" when configuring a physical ethernet port. the only command i can write following "ip" are: access-group, arp-age, bootp-gateway, dhcp-client, dhcp-server, directed-broadcast, dscp-remark, encapsulation, forward-protocol, helper-address, icmp, pcp-remark, sg-access-group, tcp, use-acl-on-arp.

"address" is not an option. is this perhaps because i need to do some global setting perhaps related to dhcp, or do you have any other suggestion?

Thanks!

Ack and Noted. Thanks for reverting.

Could you please share output of "Show version" from the switch ?

Thanks

Hi Ludvigb

Ack and Noted. Thanks for sharing.

That's correct you will be unable to configure ip on a interface which is a part of "ve" interface. You will need follow the below steps to assign a ip address on a port.

Make sure the port is not a part of any "ve" interface
Enable below command on the interface
- ICX7550-48ZP Router(config)#int e 1/1/1
- ICX7550-48ZP Router(config-if-e1000-1/1/1)#route-only
- ICX7550-48ZP Router(config-if-e1000-1/1/1)#ip address 1.1.1.1/24
In running configuration you will view as below when you give command "show run interface e 1/1/1"
- ICX7550-48ZP Router(config)#show run int e 1/1/1
  interface ethernet 1/1/1
  route-only
  ip address 1.1.1.1 255.255.255.0
  !
  ICX7550-48ZP Router(config)#

I hope this helps

Thanks
