BLADE OS 5.1 Application Guide
BMD00113, September 2009 Chapter 9: Basic IP Routing 161
IP interfaces are configured using the following commands at the CLI:
3. Set each server and workstation’s default gateway to the appropriate switch IP interface (the one in
the same subnet as the server or workstation).
4. Configure the default gateways to the routers’ addresses.
Configuring the default gateways allows the switch to send outbound traffic to the routers:
5. Enable IP forwarding.
6. Apply and verify the configuration.
Examine the resulting information. If any settings are incorrect, make the appropriate changes.
7. Save your new configuration changes.
