Dell PowerConnect ArubaOS 6.0 Command Line Interface | Reference Guide ip default-gateway | 267
ip default-gateway
ip default-gateway <ipaddr>|{import cell|dhcp|pppoe}|{ipsec <name>} <cost>
Description
This command configures the default gateway for the controller.
Syntax
Usage Guidelines
You can use this command to set the default gateway to the IP address of the interface on the upstream router or
switch to which you connect the controller. If you define more than one dynamic gateway type, you must also
define a cost for the route to each gateway. The controller will first attempt to obtain a gateway IP address using
the option with the lowest cost. If the controller is unable to obtain a gateway IP address, it will then attempt to
obtain a gateway IP address using the option with the next-lowest path cost.
Example
The following command configures the default gateway for the controller:
(host) (config) #ip default-gateway 10.1.1.1
