IP Configuration Quick Start
Table 6-1 provides a quick overview of the steps required to setup the IP 
configuration for the CSS. Each step includes the CLI command required to 
complete the task. For a complete description of each feature and all the options 
associated with the CLI command, see the sections following Table 6-1.
Table 6-1 IP Configuration Quick Start
Task and Command Example
1. Configure an IP route for the CSS. You can configure a static route, default 
route, a blackhole route, or a firewall route. For example, to configure a 
static IP route, enter:
(config)# ip route 192.168.0.0 /16 192.167.1.1 
2. (Optional) If you do not want the CSS to start an implicit service for the next 
hop of a static route, specify that no implicit service is established to the 
next hop of the static route. By default the CSS establishes an implicit 
service for the gateway address when a static route is defined.
(config)# ip no-implicit-service
3. (Optional) Enable box-to-box redundancy to provide chassis-level 
redundancy between two identically configured CSSs. 
(config)# ip redundancy
4. (Optional) Set the equal-cost multipath (ECMP) selection algorithm and the 
preferred reverse egress path.
(config)# ip ecmp address
5. (Optional) Enable the CSS to forward subnet broadcast addressed frames.
(config)# ip subnet-broadcast
6. (Recommended) Display IP information for the CSS. For example, to 
display IP routing information, enter:
# show ip routes
