Description Use this command to configure the IP addresses on a switch, a control processor (CP), a blade processor (BP), or
a standalone application processor (AP). On platforms that support Logical Fabrics, this command configures the
IPv4 Fibre Channel addresses for the logical fabric IPFC network interface. The IPFC (IP over Fibre Channel)
protocol allows switches to send IP traffic over Fibre Channel rather than through Ethernet connections.
This command supports an interactive legacy mode and a command line interface. Use the command line
interface to configure IPv6 addresses, to enable or disable stateless IPv6 autoconfiguration, to assign a Fibre
Channel IPv4 address and prefix to a logical switch IPFC network interface, and to configure a service port on the
CP blade of a Brocade DCX. When run interactively in legacy mode, this command sets the Ethernet IPv4 address,
subnet mask, and Gateway on a switch or a chassis.
Command usage depends on the type of IP address and on the platform on which the command is run. Some of
the platform- and IP address-specific features of the command are outlined below. For complete details, refer to
the Fabric OS Administrator's Guide.
