Specifies the descriptive text to use. text must be 0 to 79 alpha and/or numeric characters with no spaces or a quoted string of printable characters. The interface description is case sensitive.
ip_address/ip_mask: Specifies a combined IP address subnet mask bits to indicate what IP addresses to which the route applies.
ip_address/ip_mask must be specified using the form ‘IP Address/Mask Bits’ where the IP address is specified using the standard IPv4 dotted decimal notation and the mask bits are a numeric value which is the number of bits in the subnet mask.
ip_address ip_mask: Specifies an IP address and the networking (subnet) mask pair which is used to identify the set of IP addresses to which the route applies.
ip_address must be specified using the standard IPv4 dotted decimal notation.
ip_mask must be specified using the standard IPv4 dotted decimal notation as network mask for subnets.
The mask as specified by ip_mask or resulting from
ip_address/ip_mask is used to determine the network for packet routing.
The following command will assign the 1.2.3.4 as IPv4 address to this tunnel interface:
ipv6_address/ipv6_mask: Specifies a combined IP address subnet mask bits to indicate what IP addresses to which the route applies.
ipv6_address/ipv6_mask must be specified using the form ‘IP Address/Mask Bits’ where the IP address is specified using the standard IPv4 dotted decimal notation and the mask bits are a numeric value which is the number of bits in the subnet mask.
The following command will assign the 1001::2:010:1234 as IPv4 address to this tunnel interface:
