portCfg

Valid options and arguments for ipif are:
create src_ipaddr mtu_size
Creates IP interfaces. Specify the following:
src_ipaddr Specifies source IP address in either IPv6 or IPv4 format:
src_IPv6_addr/prefix_len
Specifies the source IPv6 address of the virtual port if IPv6 is used. The
address must be an IPv6 global, unicast address, followed by a prefix.
This is used for IPv6 addresses instead of a netmask. The prefix_len
operator is required.
src_IPv4_addr netmask
Specifies the source IPv4 address of the virtual port, if IPv4 is used. If an
IPv4 address is used, the subnet mask must be specified as well (in
a.b.c.d. format.)
mtu_size Specifies the maximum transmission unit size. The range allowed is
1260 to 2348 KB. This operand is required.
delete ipaddr Deletes IP interfaces. Specify the IPv6 or IPv4 address of the virtual port.
iproute Defines static IP routes on a GbE port. After defining the IP interface of the
remote switch, you can define destination routes on an interface. A maximum
of 32 routes per GbE port are supported. IPv6 addresses are supported on
platforms running v6.0.0 or later. The syntax for portcfg iproute is as follows:
portcfg iproute [slot/][ge]port option arguments
Valid options and arguments for iproute are:
create dest_ipaddr [gateway_router] metric
Creates IP routes, where:
dest_ipaddr Specifies the destination IP address in either IPv6 or IPv4 format:
dest_IPv6_addr/prefix_len
Specifies the destination IPv6 address of the virtual port, if IPv6 is used.
The address must be an IPv6 global, unicast address, followed by a
prefix. This is used for IPv6 addresses instead of a netmask. The
prefix_len operand is required.
dest_IPv4_addr netmask
Specifies the destination IPv4 address of the virtual port, if IPv4 is used.
If an IPv4 address is used, the subnet mask must be specified as well.
Use a.b.c.d. format.
gateway_router Specifies the IP address of an IP router that can route packets to the
destination virtual port IP address. The gateway address must be on the
same IP subnet as one of the port IP addresses. This operand is optional
with IPv6 addresses. If not specified, the gateway_router learned from
the Neighbor Discovery protocol is used.
metric Specifies the link metric associated with the route. Valid values are
0-255. The default value is 0. A low value encourages the use of the
route, and a high value discourages the use of a route.
