Configuring Routing Interfaces (CLI)
This section provides information about the commands used for configuring
VLAN routing interfaces, loopbacks, and tunnels on the switch. For more
information about the commands, see the
Dell Networking N1500, N2000,
N3000, and N4000 Series Switches CLI Reference Guide

Configuring VLAN Routing Interfaces (IPv4)
Beginning in Privileged EXEC mode, use the following commands to
configure a VLAN as a routing interface and set the IP configuration
parameters.
Command Purpose
configure Enter Global Configuration mode.
interface vlan
vlan-id Enter Interface Configuration mode for the specified
VLAN.
ip address {dhcp | none
| ip_address subnet_mask
[secondary]}
Configure the IP address.
Use the dhcp keyword to enable the DHCP client and
obtain an IP address from a network DHCP server. Use
none to release the address obtained from the DHCP
server.
Use
ip_address and subnet_mask to assign a static IP
address. For a static address, use the secondary keyword
to specify that the address is a secondary IP address.
ip netdirbcast Enable the forwarding of network-directed broadcasts.
encapsulation {ethernet |
snap}
Configure the link-layer encapsulation type for the
packet. Routed frames are always ethernet encapsulated
when a frame is routed to a VLAN.
ip proxy-arp Enable proxy ARP on the interface. Without proxy ARP,
the switch responds to an ARP request only if the target
IP address is an address configured on the interface
where the ARP request arrived. This command is not
available in interface range mode.
