VLAN groups and virtual routing interface group
These commands enable VLAN group 1 to have a group virtual routing interface, then configure
virtual routing interface group 1. The software always associates a virtual routing interface group
only with the VLAN group that has the same ID. In this example, the VLAN group ID is 1, so the
corresponding virtual routing interface group also must have ID 1.
Syntax: group-router-interface
Syntax: interface group-ve <num>
Syntax: [no] ip address <ip-addr> <ip-mask> [secondary]
or
Syntax: [no] ip address <ip-addr>/<mask-bits> [secondary]
The router-interface-group command enables a VLAN group to use a virtual routing interface group.
Enter this command at the configuration level for the VLAN group. This command configures the
VLAN group to use the virtual routing interface group that has the same ID as the VLAN group. You
can enter this command when you configure the VLAN group for the first time or later, after you
have added tagged ports to the VLAN and so on.
The <num> parameter in the interface group-ve <num> command specifies the ID of the VLAN
group with which you want to associate this virtual routing interface group. The VLAN group must
already be configured and enabled to use a virtual routing interface group. The software
automatically associates the virtual routing interface group with the VLAN group that has the same
ID. You can associate a virtual routing interface group only with the VLAN group that has the same
ID.
NOTE
IPv6 is not supported with group-ve.
NOTE
FCX devices do not support ACLs with group-ve.
NOTE
FastIron devices support group-ve with OSPF, VRRP v2 and VRRP-E v2 protocols only.
The syntax and usage for the ip address command is the same as when you use the command at
the interface level to add an IP interface.
Displaying the VLAN group and virtual routing
interface group information
To verify configuration of VLAN groups and virtual routing interface groups, display the
running-config file. If you have saved the configuration to the startup-config file, you also can verify
the configuration by displaying the startup-config file. The following example shows the
running-config information for the VLAN group and virtual routing interface group configured in the
previous examples. The information appears in the same way in the startup-config file.
