3 Enable the Management interface in INTERFACE mode.
no shutdown
Congure management interface
OS10(config)# interface mgmt 1/1/1
OS10(conf-if-ma-1/1/1)# ip address 10.1.1.10/24
OS10(conf-if-ma-1/1/1)# no shutdown
VLAN interfaces
VLANs are logical interfaces and are, by default, in L2 mode. Physical interfaces and port-channels can be members of VLANs.
OS10 supports inter-VLAN routing. You can add IP addresses to VLANs and use them in routing protocols in the same manner that physical 
interfaces are used. You cannot assign an IP address to VLAN1 (default).
When using VLANs in a routing protocol, you must congure the no shutdown command to enable the VLAN for routing trac. In 
VLANs, the 
shutdown command prevents L3 trac from passing through the interface — L2 trac is unaected by this command.
• Congure an IP address in A.B.C.D/x format on the interface in INTERFACE mode. The secondary IP address is the interface’s backup 
IP address — you can congure up to eight secondary IP addresses.
ip address ip-address/mask [secondary]
Congure VLAN
OS10(config)# interface vlan 10
OS10(conf-if-vl-10)# ip address 1.1.1.2/24
You cannot simultaneously use egress rate shaping and ingress rate policing on the same VLAN.
Loopback interfaces
A loopback interface is a virtual interface in which the software emulates an interface. Because a loopback interface is not associated to 
physical hardware entities, the loopback interface status is not aected by hardware status changes.
Packets routed to a loopback interface are processed locally to the OS10 device. Because this interface is not a physical interface, you can 
congure routing protocols on this interface to provide protocol stability. You can place loopback interfaces in default L3 mode.
• Enter the loopback interface number in CONFIGURATION mode (0 to 16383).
