Example for Configuring an IP Unnumbered Interface
Networking Requirements
As shown in Figure 1-7, tunnel interfaces (1) of SwitchA and SwitchC are seldom used, so they have no IP address configured. IP unnumbered needs to be configured on the tunnel interfaces so that the two switches can communicate through the tunnel.
Configuration Roadmap
The configuration roadmap is as follows:
- Create tunnel interfaces on SwitchA and SwitchC, set up a GRE tunnel between them, and specify the source and destination addresses of the tunnel interfaces.
- On SwitchA and SwitchC, configure an IP address for a loopback interface and configure the tunnel interface to borrow the IP address from this loopback interface.
Procedure
- Configure public IP addresses for interfaces connecting the switches and for Loopback0 interfaces.
# Configure SwitchA.
<HUAWEI> system-view [HUAWEI] sysname SwitchA [SwitchA] vlan 10 [SwitchA-vlan10] quit [SwitchA] interface gigabitethernet 1/0/1 [SwitchA-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] port link-type trunk [SwitchA-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] port trunk allow-pass vlan 10 [SwitchA-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] quit [SwitchA] interface vlanif 10 [SwitchA-Vlanif10] ip address 10.20.1.1 24 [SwitchA-Vlanif10] quit [SwitchA] interface loopback 0 [SwitchA-LoopBack0] ip address 10.1.1.1 24 [SwitchA-LoopBack0] quit
# Configure SwitchB.
<HUAWEI> system-view [HUAWEI] sysname SwitchB [SwitchB] vlan batch 10 20 [SwitchB] interface gigabitethernet 1/0/1 [SwitchB-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] port link-type trunk [SwitchB-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] port trunk allow-pass vlan 10 [SwitchB-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] quit [SwitchB] interface gigabitethernet 1/0/2 [SwitchB-GigabitEthernet1/0/2] port link-type trunk [SwitchB-GigabitEthernet1/0/2] port trunk allow-pass vlan 20 [SwitchB-GigabitEthernet1/0/2] quit [SwitchB] interface vlanif 10 [SwitchB-Vlanif10] ip address 10.20.1.2 24 [SwitchB-Vlanif10] quit [SwitchB] interface vlanif 20 [SwitchB-Vlanif20] ip address 10.30.1.1 24 [SwitchB-Vlanif20] quit
# Configure SwitchC.
<HUAWEI> system-view [HUAWEI] sysname SwitchC [SwitchC] vlan 20 [SwitchC-vlan20] quit [SwitchC] interface gigabitethernet 1/0/1 [SwitchC-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] port link-type trunk [SwitchC-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] port trunk allow-pass vlan 20 [SwitchC-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] quit [SwitchC] interface vlanif 20 [SwitchC-Vlanif20] ip address 10.30.1.2 24 [SwitchC-Vlanif20] quit [SwitchC] interface loopback 0 [SwitchC-LoopBack0] ip address 10.1.2.1 24 [SwitchC-LoopBack0] quit
- Configure OSPF on the switches.
# Configure SwitchA.
[SwitchA] ospf 1 [SwitchA-ospf-1] area 0 [SwitchA-ospf-1-area-0.0.0.0] network 10.20.1.0 0.0.0.255 [SwitchA-ospf-1-area-0.0.0.0] quit [SwitchA-ospf-1] quit
# Configure SwitchB.
[SwitchB] ospf 1 [SwitchB-ospf-1] area 0 [SwitchB-ospf-1-area-0.0.0.0] network 10.20.1.0 0.0.0.255 [SwitchB-ospf-1-area-0.0.0.0] network 10.30.1.0 0.0.0.255 [SwitchB-ospf-1-area-0.0.0.0] quit [SwitchB-ospf-1] quit
# Configure SwitchC.
[SwitchC] ospf 1 [SwitchC-ospf-1] area 0 [SwitchC-ospf-1-area-0.0.0.0] network 10.30.1.0 0.0.0.255 [SwitchC-ospf-1-area-0.0.0.0] quit [SwitchC-ospf-1] quit
- Configure tunnel interfaces 1 to borrow the IP address from Loopback0 and configure the GRE tunnel.
# Configure SwitchA.
[SwitchA] interface tunnel 1 [SwitchA-Tunnel1] tunnel-protocol gre [SwitchA-Tunnel1] ip address unnumbered interface loopback 0 [SwitchA-Tunnel1] source 10.20.1.1 [SwitchA-Tunnel1] destination 10.30.1.2 [SwitchA-Tunnel1] quit
# Configure SwitchC.
[SwitchC] interface tunnel 1 [SwitchC-Tunnel1] tunnel-protocol gre [SwitchC-Tunnel1] ip address unnumbered interface loopback 0 [SwitchC-Tunnel1] source 10.30.1.2 [SwitchC-Tunnel1] destination 10.20.1.1 [SwitchC-Tunnel1] quit
- Configure static routes.
# Configure SwitchA.
[SwitchA] ip route-static 10.1.2.0 255.255.255.0 tunnel 1# Configure SwitchC.
[SwitchC] ip route-static 10.1.1.0 255.255.255.0 tunnel 1 - Verify the configuration.
