Assigning an IP Address to a VLAN

VLANs are a Layer 2 feature. For two physical interfaces on different VLANs to communicate, you must assign an IP address to the VLANs to route traffic between the two interfaces.

The shutdown command in INTERFACE mode does not affect Layer 2 traffic on the interface; the shutdown command only prevents Layer 3 traffic from traversing over the interface.
NOTE You cannot assign an IP address to the Default VLAN (VLAN 1). To assign another VLAN ID to the Default VLAN, use the default vlan-id vlan-id command.

In Dell EMC Networking OS, you can place VLANs and other logical interfaces in Layer 3 mode to receive and send routed traffic. For more information, refer to Bulk Configuration.

To assign an IP address, use the following command.

Configure an IP address and mask on the interface.
INTERFACE mode
ip address ip-address mask [secondary]
  • ip-address mask — Enter an address in dotted-decimal format (A.B.C.D) and the mask must be in slash format (/24).
  • secondary — This is the interface’s backup IP address. You can configure up to eight secondary IP addresses.
