ip address unnumbered Use ip address unnumbered to configure the current interface as IP unnumbered to borrow an IP address from the specified interface. Use undo ip address unnumbered to disable IP unnumbered on the interface. Syntax ip address unnumbered interface interface-type interface-number undo ip address unnumbered Default The interface does not borrow IP addresses from other interfaces. Views Tunnel Interface view Predefined user roles network-admin Parameters interface interface-type interface-number: Specifies an interface from which the current interface can borrow an IP address. Usage guidelines Typically, you assign an IP address to an interface either manually or through DHCP. If the IP addresses are not enough, or the interface is used only occasionally, you can configure an interface to borrow an IP address from other interfaces. This is called IP unnumbered, and the interface borrowing the IP address is called IP unnumbered interface. Multiple interfaces can use the same unnumbered IP address. If an interface has multiple manually configured IP addresses, only the primary IP address manually configured can be borrowed. Create a tunnel interface before you enter the tunnel interface view. For more information about tunnel interfaces, see Layer 3-IP Services Configuration Guide. Examples # Configure the interface Tunnel 1 to borrow the IP address of VLAN-interface 100. system-view [Sysname] interface Tunnel 1 [Sysname-Tunnel1] ip address unnumbered interface vlan-interface 100 26
