Configuring IP Information IP Addressing 7 • Next Hop - Displays the address to which the packet is forwarded (typically the address of a neighboring router). This can be either a Link Local or Global address. • Metric - Indicates the value used for comparing this route to other routes with the same destination in the IPv6 route table. • Route Type - Defines whether the destination is directly attached and the means by which the entry was learned. The following values are: - Local - Indicates the destination is directly connected. The entry was added statically. This type of route will typically have a Prefix Length of 64 and no Next Hop address in the Next Hop field. - Dynamic - Indicates the destination is not directly attached. Entry was learned dynamically via the ICMP protocol. Layer 2 IP Addressing The IP address and default gateway can be either dynamically or statically configured. In Layer 2, a static IP address is configured on the IPv4 Interface Page. The Management VLAN is set to VLAN 1 by default, but can be modified. When the system is in stacking mode with a Backup Master present, configure the IP address as a static address. This prevents disconnecting from the network during a Stacking Master switchover. Layer 3 IP Addressing In Layer 3 mode, multiple IP addresses can be configured on ports, LAGs or VLANS. This provides greater network flexibility than Layer 2 mode where only a single IP address is configured on VLANs only. A predefined Default Gateway is not provided in Layer 3. To manage the device remotely, a default route is defined. The Default Route is the route with the next hop of 0.0.0.0. The Default Route is defined in the IP Static Routing Page. The IP Addressing section contains the following topics: • Defining IPv4 Interface (Layer 2) • Defining IPv4 Interface (Layer 3) • Enabling ARP Proxy (Layer 3) • Defining UDP Relay (Layer 3) Cisco Small Business SFE/SGE Managed Switches Administration Guide 204

Next Hop
— Displays the address to which the packet is forwarded (typically
the address of a neighboring router). This can be either a Link Local or Global
address.
Metric
— Indicates the value used for comparing this route to other routes with
the same destination in the IPv6 route table.
Route Type
— Defines whether the destination is directly attached and the
means by which the entry was learned. The following values are:
-
Local
— Indicates the destination is directly connected. The entry was
added statically. This type of route will typically have a Prefix Length of
64 and no Next Hop address in the Next Hop field.
-
Dynamic
— Indicates the destination is not directly attached. Entry was
learned dynamically via the ICMP protocol.
Layer 2 IP Addressing
The IP address and default gateway can be either dynamically or statically
configured. In Layer 2, a static IP address is configured on the
IPv4 Interface Page
.
The Management VLAN is set to VLAN 1 by default, but can be modified.
When the system is in stacking mode with a Backup Master present, configure the
IP address as a static address. This prevents disconnecting from the network
during a Stacking Master switchover.
Layer 3 IP Addressing
In Layer 3 mode, multiple IP addresses can be configured on ports, LAGs or
VLANS. This provides greater network flexibility than Layer 2 mode where only a
single IP address is configured on VLANs only. A predefined Default Gateway is
not provided in Layer 3. To manage the device remotely, a default route is defined.
The Default Route is the route with the next hop of 0.0.0.0. The Default Route is
defined in the
IP Static Routing Page
.
