M4200 and M4300 Series ProSAFE Managed Switches Web Management User Manual
This is also referred to as the subnet/network mask, and defines the portion of the
interface's IP address that is used to identify the attached network.
11. In the Routing Mode list, select Enable or Disable.
The default value is Enable.
12. Use Administrative Mode to enable or disable the administrative mode of the interface.
The default value is Enable. This mode is not supported for logical VLAN interfaces.
13. Use Forward Net Directed Broadcasts to select how network directed broadcast packets
are handled.
If you select Enable, network directed broadcasts are forwarded.
If you select Disable, they are dropped. The default value is Disable.
14. Use Encapsulation Type to select the link layer encapsulation type for packets transmitted
from the specified interface.
The possible values are Ethernet and SNAP. The default is Ethernet.
15. Use Proxy Arp to disable or enable proxy ARP for the specified interface.
16. Use Local Proxy Arp to disable or enable local proxy ARP for the specified interface.
17. Use Bandwidth (kbps) to specify the configured bandwidth on this interface.
This parameter communicates the speed of the interface to higher level protocols. OSPF
uses bandwidth to compute link cost. The valid range is 1 to 10000000.
18. Use ICMP Destination Unreachables to specify the mode of sending ICMP destination
unreachables on this interface.
If this is Disabled then this interface does not send ICMP destination unreachables. By
default destination unreachables mode is enabled.
19. Use ICMP Redirects to enable or disable ICMP redirects mode.
The router sends an ICMP redirect on an interface only if redirects are enabled both
globally and on the interface. By default ICMP redirects mode is enabled.
20. Use IP MTU to specify the maximum size of IP packets sent on an interface.
The valid range is 68 bytes to the link MTU. The default value is 0. A value of 0 indicates
that the IP MTU is unconfigured. When the IP MTU is unconfigured, the router uses the
link MTU as the IP MTU. The IP MTU is the maximum frame size minus the length of the
Layer 2 header.
21. To delete the IP address from the selected interface, click the Delete button.
22. Click the Apply button.
The updated configuration is sent to the switch. Configuration changes take effect
immediately.
