Subcommands

[no] description <description>

Allows you to set a description for the bridge group.

[no] dhcp-server

You can type dhcp-server to get to DHCP server configuration options. Being a DHCP server, the bridge group needs its own IP address. The minimum settings for DHCP server are the pool start and end IP addresses.

Example: pool 10.10.10.100 10.10.10.150

The pool addresses must be in the same subnet as the IPv4 address. If a gateway address is specified, it must also be in the same subnet. The Local Manager will not function as a gateway, DNS, or NTP server.

You can specify up to 4 DNS and 4 NTP servers that are space separated.

TTL (Time-to-Live) means the DHCP lease time. The number after “ttl” is the number of seconds, with a range from 1 minute (60 seconds) to 1 day (86,400 seconds).

You can specify up to 255 characters in the search string which is a space separated list of domains. If you don't specify TTL, the server will default to 1-hour DHCP lease times.

[no] interface <Ethernet x/y>

You can specify as many Ethernet interfaces as the box has to any given bridge group. If you try to add the same interface to multiple bridge groups, the second bridge group won't allow the already in-use interface.

[no] ip <IPv4> and [no] ipv6 <IPv6>

IP and IPv6 both take a subnet mask. Examples are:

  • ip 172.30.105.5/24
  • ipv6 2099::1:1/112

TFTP, FTP, and SCP do not work with IPv6. IPv6 can be used for ping or if the Local Manager wants to communicate out to a device connected via IPv6.
