ACE4710: ¿ can´t I assign IP address to a physical Ethernet port?

Hello team.
I suspect I will receive a "no" as the answer, but I would appreciate confirmation anyway
My customer wants each ACE4710 (of a highly available cluster) to have its own, dedicated port for management purposes.
According to documentation, IP addressing can be applied to VLAN interfaces, so in order to satisfy the requirement, I should make one port belong to an "access VLAN X", and then apply IP addressing to the corresponding "interface VLAN X". This should satisfy my customer´s requirement in an indirect way.
But... ¿ Can´t I just configure IP address on one of the 4 ethernet ports in order to save the work of building the aforementioned VLAN? I am asking this since I do not have access to a real box in order to verify.
Your kind answers will be greatly appreciated.
Regards, Rogelio (Argentina)                  

Hi ROgelio,
You are right there is no way to assign IP address to physical interface.
ace-4710-1/Admin(config)# int gigabitEthernet 1/1
ace-4710-1/Admin(config-if)# ip ?
% invalid command
cdn-ace-4710-1/Admin(config-if)# ?
Interface config commands:
  carrier-delay  Set port up delay value
  channel-group  Map physical port to port channel
  description    Interface specific description
  do             EXEC command
  duplex         Configure duplex operation
  end            Exit from configure mode
  exit           Exit from this submode
  ft-port        Make physical port specific for Fault Tolerance(FT)
  no             Negate a command or set its defaults
  qos            Configure QoS operation
  shutdown       Shut down the interface
  speed          Configure speed operation
  switchport     Set switching mode characteristics
So there is no option to configure an IP address on physical interface.

  • Can time capsule be connected wirelessly and still use ethernet ports for other devices?

    can time capsule be connected wirelessly and still use ethernet ports for other devices? we have it connected wirelessly but devices connected to the ethernet ports are not working.

    Not as an additional router.. the TC will be plugged into the main router via ethernet (or ethernet equivalent)..
    Then the TC is setup in bridge mode. It will simply act as a Switch and HDD.
    The wireless can be setup in a number of ways.
    From your convenience point of view use it in roaming network mode..
    you simply give the TC the same Wireless Name as the existing routers SSID.
    Same security setting and password. WPA2 Personal = WPA2 AES which is the best.
    But they both use different wireless channels.. normally if you leave the TC on auto it will work fine, but I prefer to control the network.. so set the main router to say 1 and the TC to 11.
    You can also use a completely different wireless name etc.. that is up to you. It is still a single flat network and the only thing that is important is only having one router.

  • Extend Wireless Network using a Telstra technicolor Gateway wireless Router to Airpot extreme but Airport will only except join not extend and I can not get a network on the Airpor Extreme ethernet ports but can ping Airport extreme from Technicolor Rout/

    Extend Wireless Network using a Telstra technicolor Gateway wireless Router to Airpot extreme but Airport will only except "join a wireless network (which it does) not "extend a wireless network" (Led turns yellow and I can not get a network working on the Airpor Extreme ethernet ports but can ping Airport extreme from Technicolor Router.
    Airport gets it address DHCP.

    Funny how I can ping the Extreme but the Hard Ethernet ports dont seem to work correctly.
    When the AirPort Extreme is configured to "Join" a wireless network, the Ethernet ports are not enabled.
    Oddly, the AirPort Express has a special feature that will allow it to to "Join" virtually any wireless network.....and the Ethernet port can be enabled. So, an Express would work for your purpose to provide an Ethernet connection to the media player. This assumes that the Express is located where it can receive a strong wireless signal from your main router.
    Note that the Express will not provide any additional wireless coverage when it "Joins".

  • Programatically setting the IP address of a 8234 ethernet port in a specific PXI slot

    Hi, I have a system with multiple 8234 ethernet cards in a PXIe chassis.  Each port has its own subnet and IP address.  I need to ensure that the user never has to swap ethernet cables from port to port after a 8234 card is replaced.  I.e., how do I programatically set the IP address and subnet of a specific port in a specific slot?
    Any comments welcome.

  • SCCM Assign IP Address manually to addtional Nics

    Hi
    I'm using SCCM 2012 to deploy Hyper V Servers on physical hosts . I have 4 x 10gbe network cards and 1 x 1Gb NIC . I'm using 1Gbe card to PXE boot the server . I'm wanting to assign IP Addresses manually to Physical NICs from Task sequence
    . May be I want to see a pop up box asking for using input whilst doing the OS Deployment . Is it a possible scenario ? If yes How can I achieve this ?
    Thanks
    mumtaz  

    Hi mumtaz
    If you would like to interact with a user
    during task sequnce, it's not possible or not known to me. But there are other ways to solve this:
    Set the IP addresses as device variables in sccm console, then you can consume them in a powershell script and assign the ip to the network cards. We have realized this for single nics.
    Set IP Adresses in a prestart command(Configurable in Boot Image Settings). THis command is executed before the task sequence starts and you can display a frontend(HTA or something else). This GUI can list the available network adapters and let
    you specify the ips. These values are saved to task sequence variables. These can be used with a powershell script like in point one.
    You can also try to set the built in variables. Then you don't have to run a powershell script. Documentation can be found
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh273365.aspx. Ther you can find the available variables for the Apply Network Settings step. The problem for us was with this method, that
    you didn't know which adapter is 0, 1, 2, 3, 4. With a powershell script we could get such information from wmi and built our own logic.

  • Can i configure each ethernet port to fixed and auto ip adresses?

    Hi, i will be using a SSL Matrix Controller with Logic 9. This connects thru ethernet and requires a FIXED address. However, this Mac also needs to connect to the internet which doesnt use a fixed a address. Can I keep port one the way it is, and configure port two as fixed and have them both work properly? Are they completely independent of each ther?
    Thx

    Do you use a Router that you control?
    If so, you can have fixed addresses easily -- just assign an address Manually that is in the same range, but above or below the ones your Router is likely to pass out automatically.
    You can also assign a manual address to the second Ethernet port, but using it this way is complex. What does the device maker recommend?

  • Ethernet port on AP Extreme- can I hook up a hub?

    I'm looking into re-doing my home network to get better coverage and to extend to some non-wireless devices. I currently have a linksys-n router, but it doesn't cover the whole house- I apparently have some type of interference somwhere- it has to be hooked up directly to my mac on one side of the house, but doesn't reach the other side. I also have a few Home A/V devices with LAN ports that I need to get online, but they aren't anywhere near my wireless router.
    So if I change over to an Extreme Base station and get an Express as well, can I connect those non-wifi devices to the ethernet port on the Express? I've read the product page and the manual for the express- it says you can connect to an Ethernet network but really doesn't explain it or how to do it, or what you can do via an Ethernet network. I basically need to add an Ethernet port/hub at my home entertainment center. If I can stream iTunes and improve my wireless network at the same time I'm good to go.
    What I'm hoping to do is this: DSL to Extreme (where my mac is plugged in via Ethernet). Extreme to Express. Express to Dish Network reciever (622) (or even better to a hub to 622 and Onkyo AV reciever).
    I may start with just the Extreme in my entertainment center and see if it can reach the mac any better than the linksys.
    Possible?

    Okay, I've found this:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2044?viewlocale=en_US
    and this:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1515?viewlocale=en_US
    But every time the Express is shown in a diagram, it is hooked up to a printer or stereo. From reading the FAQ it looks like it SHOULD work, but I'd like to hear from someone to confirm this before I plunk down a bunch of cash.

  • My ipad recognizes my home network but will not connect to the internet. When I click on AirPort/preferences at the top of the imac screen it says..."AirPort has a self-assigned ip address and may not connect to the internet".How can I change ip address?

    My ipad recognizes my home network but will not connect to the internet. When I click on AirPort/preferences at the top of the imac screen it says..."AirPort has a self-assigned ip address and may not connect to the internet". If this is the root of the problem,how can I change ip address?
    Ipad will connect no problem to other networks.

    First thing you need I think is to get your iMac connected to the Internet.
    Shut down your iMac and you iPad. Then power off your router. Wait 30 seconds and power up the router.
    After the router indicates that it is connected to the Internet then start up your iMac and see if it connects. If the iMac connects to the Internet then your iPad should too.
    If this power up sequence doesn't work you'll have to dig into the router setup to make sure it is working properly.

  • Airport Extreme wired network can't assign IP address, but wireless works

    *Problem details:*
    We have three computers intermittently on, wired into the ethernet LAN managed by the Airport Extreme.
    We have a few more computers that connect to the wireless network managed by the same Airport Extreme.
    As far as I know, no fancy settings hijinks have been attempted. I manage the router, and I only plugged the Airport into the cable modem and connected all the wires to the computers. The WiFi setup went a similar way -- I just turned it on and it sorted itself out. This was eight months ago, mind you -- everything has been going quite well up until this weekend.
    But! I got home from a trip this weekend to discover that all the machines that connected over the wired network could no longer get a connection to the internet. Any machine connected over the wireless network, however, was working just fine. Indeed, my macbook pros couldn't even see the Airport Extreme when I turned off their WiFi, connected them over Ethernet and opened the Airport Extreme configuration app!
    The wired machines complain that they have a self-assigned IP address. Sometimes, after resetting everything, they look like everything's fine for a moment. Like I said, ordinarily my macbook pro does not even recognize the router over the wired network. However, after reverting to factory defaults and restarting the Airport, the laptop did see it (until a few minutes went by and it realized something was wrong).
    I figured that renewing my DHCP lease would fix this problem, but it did not. Nor did turning off Passive FTP Mode (PASV) under Proxies in the Network configuration pane.
    I have tried resetting the router to factory defaults, power cycling the modem and router in various configurations, etc. but nothing has worked. In addition, I have verified that connecting any machine to the ethernet directly from the modem will work, so the problem is definitely being introduced by the Airport Extreme.
    So I guess my question is: what do I have to poke to return everything to normal? I'd like working wired and wireless networks again.
    *Some last few details:*
    The Airport is running 7.5.2, but downgrading to 7.4.2 produced no tangible difference.
    I have an Ubee D3.0 modem. All lights are green and blinky except the DS light, which is solid amber (and it is green when the modem is wired directly to one of my computers -- it's only amber when connected to the Airport).
    Some of the machines that can't connect to the wired network are PCs, so it's not just an OSX thing.
    My roommate's XBOX 360 can connect to the internet over the wired port. It doesn't have WiFi, so I'm pretty sure there's no way it could be fooling me.
    Thanks in advance for any advice you can muster.
    EDIT FOR APOLOGIES:
    I didn't realize I was posting this in the "Airport for Windows" section. While a Windows computer's connection is a concern, I would much rather get my Macs online and deal with that first. I can't figure out how to move the message myself.

    *An update:*
    Several days later, this issue seems to have fixed itself. I suspect there may have been Funny Business on my ISP's end (but then again, it's an ISP).

  • Can't connect wireless due to "self-assigned IP address"

    I recently switched from PC to Macbook. I cannot log on to many wifi networks I could previously access with my ThinkPad. The computer successfully finds the network and has a strong signal but will not connect. Under network status, I get a message that says something like "Your Macbook is connected to the wireless network but AirPort has a self-assigned IP address and may not be able to connect to the network."
    Ive tried various options but still no luck. This mostly happens in public Wi-Fi networks such as internet cafes, airports and Starbucks' T-Mobile networks. Thanks!

    Can you connect to any wireless location? Or does not fail only in certain places? If you can't connect anywhere, it is your problem. If you can connect in some places but not others, it is their problem.
    It wouldn't surprise me if there is some new, cheap vendor of wireless access points that doesn't do the network settings correctly and only Windows machines will connect to it.
    You were a ThinkPad owner, so you weren't a typical PC user anyway. Most of them use PCs only because they are cheap, cheap, cheap. Is it 3.29 cheaper than a Mac? Buy it! Those people are now making cheap wireless access turnkey solutions. I have seen people like that before. Just because there are hundreds of millions of pounds of equipment depending on the software, or people's lives, doesn't mean they know how to do networking. They may be so incompetent they don't know they are incompetent. Those types typcially would never, ever think to test their product on a Mac.

  • Can't get rid of self assigned IP address

    Hello,
    I have been trying to resolve this problem by myself for the last 4 days (by googling and reading forums) but nothing works so here I am.
    I moved last Tuesday and everything worked fine until that day. Since I am in my new apartment, I can't connect to the Internet because of a self assigned IP address. Here is more info:
    -I have a new modem since I moved (the apartment where I was living was furnished and had a modem already). However, I am using the same service provider and modem than the apartment I was subletting.
    -I only have a modem (no router) and I use the Ethernet to connect.
    -I am writing this message from a PC laptop which confirms that the modem is working fine and that the ethernet cable is fine, etc.
    -I did many rounds of shutting down the computer, renew DHCP, unplugging the modem (from 1 minute to 10 hours) and plugging everything back.
    -I called the ISP but they could not help (they just repeated the same instructions that I could find in the guide)...They have no idea how I can get rid of the self assigned IP address.
    The problem is still the same, I can't get rid of the self assigned IP address (169.xxx).
    Please help if you know other tricks to fix that issue...
    Thanks a LOT in advance!!
    Julie

    Re 1) Setting up a new account won't solve the problem in itself but it will help narrow down the cause. The idea is this: the problem might be caused by something system-wide (e.g. a preference file in /Library/Preferences) or it might be caused by something that is specific to your account (e.g. a preference file in yourhome/Library/Preferences). If we knew which, we could target the troubleshooting appropriately. The easiest way to figure out which is to create a new user, log in as that user and see if the problem remains. If it does, it must be system-wide; if not, it is specific to your account.
    Are you using any firewall software? If you are using Tiger's built-in firewall, how is it configured?

  • Can't connect to internet..self assigned ip address problem with DSL Modem

    I've run into this before, without resolution, and now again on a friend's iMac. Time to ask around...
    Basically, everything appears to be assigned and configured perfectly, but the network status always shows, "...you have a self assigned IP address and may not be able to connect to the internet". Sure can't connect to the net when it says that.
    I've gone thru the procedure advise before that details the sequence of events needed to insure the modem resets and recognizes the Mac and it's incoming DSL (sbcglobal) signal. The order of network priority is set properly by dragging built in ethernet to the top of the list. Modem was powered down, plugged in, and then connected to the Mac, but no solution. Any ideas? thanks

    This continues to be a mystery. I've had my powerbook on several networks, and connection has, most of the time, been an automatic process. Additionally, I've installed new systems for people with the same isp, and all has been well. So easy is the process, it's never been an issue. However, following explicit procedural instructions (including powering the Mac down), has proven unsuccessful on 2 different occasions.
    There is little help with the isp support in India, which is where the call routes too.
    The only thing I have not done is to swap out the cable at one of the locations, but the other location, which has the same issue, works fine on the iMac there. Only when I connect my Powerbook to the modem, does the "...self assigned ip address...not be able to connect to the internet" appear.
    I just keep thinking there has got to be a small detail that is being overlooked.

  • Can't delete a self-assigned IP address...

    Hi folks,
    I am using an circa 2005 iMac G5 PPC desktop with 10.5.8. I am trying to connect the iMac to my Time Capsule via ethernet cable, but seem to be having problems with my ethernet card. When I plug into the TC ethernet port, the TC drive, does not mount and I cannot access the worldwide web.
    When I go to System Preferences --> Networking, the tab on the left for ethernet connection shows a green dot, says "self-assigned IP" and the status says "connected" PRIOR TO CONNECTING THE ETHERNET CABLE TO THE TIME CAPSULE. It shows a "self-assigned" IP (DHCP selected) of 169.254.69.249, even though I know my TC is 10.0.1.1.  Turning the ethernet off then back on, renewing the DHCP lease, nothing seems to be able to make this 169 IP address go away. The wireless connection to the TC is just fine... everything does what it should, I just can't get the ethernet cable connection to work.
    Out of curriosity, I went to the System Profiler, and on the network tab it shows ethernet IPv4 169.254.69.249 (name en0).
    I know it's not the Time Capsule, as I connected my laptop to it just fine via ethernet. The TC was IP 10.0.1.1 and it assigned 10.0.1.5 to my laptop (I have a variety of devices on my network), and I was able to transfer data and access the internet with no issues whatsoever.
    I live in an 32 story apartment with a built-in ethernet network and ISP included in my rent. It's pretty nice, high speed. I connect from the wall to the Time Capsule via ethernet (circle dot connection port, so I know I have the right port), and then wirelessly out to a couple of laptops, a couple of Airport Express, and of course my desktop.
    Bottom line, I think the ethernet card on iMac G5 desktop has gone bad: A few questions:
    (1) Any ideas what may be wrong? Has anyone seen this self-assigned IP thing that won't go away?
    (2) Any ideas how to fix it?
    (3) How much will it cost? It may be time to replace my 6-year old desk top computer.
    Thanks, Andy
