IP Routing Conﬁguration and

Management

This chapter describes the conﬁguration and management of IP routing in

the Nortel Ethernet Routing Switch 5500 Series. IP Routing conﬁguration

is accomplished through the Command Line Interface (CLI), Web-based

Management Interface, or the Java Device Manager (JDM).

This chapter contains the following topics:

•

"IP routing initial conﬁguration" (page 51)

•

"IP routing conﬁguration examples" (page 120)

•

"IP routing conﬁguration using the Java Device Manager" (page 206)

IP routing initial conﬁguration

This section provides step by step instructions for the initial conﬁguration of

the IP routing protocols supported by the Nortel Ethernet Routing Switch

5500 Series. For conceptual information about IP routing topics covered

in this section, refer to "An Introduction to IP Routing Protocols" (page 13).

This section contains the following topics:

•

"Global IP routing conﬁguration" (page 51)

•

"Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) initial conﬁguration" (page 52)

This chapter also contains in-depth conﬁguration examples that can aid in

the advanced conﬁguration of the switch. Refer to "IP routing conﬁguration

examples" (page 120)for these advanced examples.

Global IP routing conﬁguration

Before IP routing conﬁguration can take place, IP routing must be globally

enabled on the switch. Use the set of commands outlined below to enter the

Global Conﬁguration mode of the switch and enable IP routing.

5530-24TFD# enable

5530-24TFD# config terminal

5530-24TFD(config)# ip routing
