configure interface
The configure interface command configures the local node to be a Home Agent,
Foreign Agent or a combined Home and Foreign Agent by configuring Mobile IPv4
service(s) for a LAN interface. You can use the configure interface command
multiple times to configure Mobile IPv4 services on multiple LAN interfaces.
NOTE An Agent with AAA Mobile Node clients can be a Home Agent or Foreign Agent, but not
both. For example, if the local node has AAA Mobile Node clients, you cannot configure
one interface for Home Agent services and another interface for Foreign Agent services.
In addition, you cannot configure an interface for combined Home and Foreign Agent
services.
Syntax
c[onfigure] i[nterface] [interface_name] [-s services]
[-pad primary_address] [-pan primary_netmask] [-aa advertisement_address]
[-cw challenge_window][-ai advertisement_interval]
[-al advertisement_lifetime] [-mrl maximum_registration _lifetime]
Parameters
interface_name Name of the interface. The mipconfig utility will warn you if the
interface is not configured on the system (ifconfig UP, not
POINTOPOINT or LOOPBACK).
Acceptable Values: LAN interface name (lanxx[:yy], where xx is
the physical point of attachment and yy is the logical interface index).
mipconfig Default: None. If you do not specify a value, mipconfig
will operate in novice mode.
mipd Daemon Default: None.
services Home Agent and/or Foreign Agent service(s) provided on the interface.
Acceptable Values:
HA (Home Agent)
FA (Foreign Agent)
HAFA, HA-FA, FAHA or FA-HA (both Home Agent and Foreign Agent
services simultaneously)
mipconfig Default: None. You must specify a value.
mipd Daemon Default: None.
primary_address
Primary IP address of the interface. Mobile IPv4 uses this address as
the source for Home Agent and Foreign Agent advertisements. For
Home Agent interfaces, the Mobile Node clients using this interface
must configure the value for primary_address as their Home Agent
address.
Acceptable Values: IP address in dotted-decimal notation.
mipconfig Default: IP address configured for the interface.
mipd Daemon Default: None.
