User Guidelines
• Assigning an IP address to an interface does not disable L2 protocols, such as STP.
• Defining a static IP address on an interface implicitly removes the DHCP client configuration on the
interface.
• Interface context may be VLAN 1 only
Examples
switch(config)> interface vlan 1
switch(config-if)> ip address 131.108.1.27 255.255.255.0 default-gateway
