Enable a New IP Address

If a new IP address is configured for the system, then the address is not transmitted by default (that is, the TLV transmission status of the newly configured IP address is disabled).

  1. At switch 1, create VLAN 2 with IP address 15.0.0.1:
    SEFOS# configure terminal
    SEFOS(config)# vlan 2
    SEFOS(config-vlan)# ports extreme-ethernet 0/1
    SEFOS(config-vlan)# end
    SEFOS# configure terminal
    SEFOS(config)# interface vlan 2
    SEFOS(config-if)# ip address 15.0.0.1 255.255.255.0
    SEFOS(config-if)# no shutdown
    SEFOS(config-if)# end
  2. Review the IP addresses that are configured for the system and the TLV transmission status of the addresses.
    SEFOS# show lldp local mgmt-addr
    Management Address            TxEnabledPorts
    ------------------            --------------
    12.0.0.1                    Ex0/1
    15.0.0.1

    The TxEnabledPorts for management address 15.0.0.1 do not display any interfaces.

  3. Enable the newly configured management address (15.0.0.1) for transmission.
    SEFOS# configure terminal
    SEFOS(config)# interface extreme-ethernet 0/1
    SEFOS(config-if)# lldp tlv-select basic-tlv mgmt-addr ipv4 15.0.0.1
    SEFOS(config)# end
  4. Review the IP addresses that are configured for the system and the TLV transmission status of the addresses.
    SEFOS# show lldp local mgmt-addr
    Management Address            TxEnabledPorts
    ------------------            --------------
    12.0.0.1                    Ex0/1
    15.0.0.1                    Ex0/1
  5. At switch 2, review the neighbor information learned on interface extreme-ethernet 0/1.
    SEFOS# show lldp neighbors extreme-ethernet 0/1 detail
