Introduction

This document provides IP unnumbered configuration examples.

This feature enables an interface to borrow an IP address from another interface on the device when the borrowing interface does not have any IP addresses. The borrowing interface is called IP unnumbered interface.

Prerequisites

The configuration examples in this document were created and verified in a lab environment, and all the devices were started with the factory default configuration. When you are working on a live network, make sure you understand the potential impact of every command on your network.

This document assumes that you have basic knowledge of H3C IP unnumbered.

Restrictions and guidelines

When you configure IP unnumbered, follow these restrictions and guidelines:

·     Loopback interfaces cannot borrow IP addresses of other interfaces.

·     An interface cannot borrow an IP address from an unnumbered interface.

·     If an interface has multiple manually configured IP addresses, only the manually configured primary IP address can be borrowed.

Example: Configuring IP unnumbered

Network configuration

As shown in Figure 1, Group A and Group B are two private IPv4 networks. Device A and Device C will establish a GRE tunnel to interconnect Group 1 and Group 2.

To save IP address space, configure tunnel interface Tunnel 1 to borrow an IP address from the loopback interface loopback 0.

Software versions used

This configuration example was created and verified on S7500E-X-CMW710-R7536P05.

Procedures

Configuring Device A

1.     Assign IP addresses to the interfaces:

# Assign an IP address to VLAN-interface 12.

<DeviceA> system-view

[DeviceA] interface vlan-interface 12

[DeviceA-Vlan-interface12] ip address 12.12.12.1 24

[DeviceA-Vlan-interface12] quit

# Assign IP addresses to other interfaces in the same way an IP address is assigned to VLAN-interface 12. (Details not shown.)

2.     Configure OSPF:

# Enable OSPF process 1.

[DeviceA] ospf 1

# Create Area 0 and specify VLAN-interface 12 whose IP address is on network 12.12.12.0/24 to run OSPF in Area 0.

[DeviceA-ospf-1] area 0

[DeviceA-ospf-1-area-0.0.0.0] network 12.12.12.0 0.0.0.255

[DeviceA-ospf-1-area-0.0.0.0] quit

[DeviceA-ospf-1] quit

3.     Configure a GRE tunnel:

# Create service loopback group 1 and specify the unicast tunnel service for the group.

[DeviceA] service-loopback group 1 type tunnel

# Assign GigabitEthernet 3/0/3 to the service loopback group.

[DeviceA] interface gigabitethernet 3/0/3

[DeviceA-GigabitEthernet3/0/3] port service-loopback group 1

[DeviceA-GigabitEthernet3/0/3] quit

# Create a tunnel interface Tunnel 1, and specify the tunnel mode as GRE/IPv4.

[DeviceA] interface tunnel 1 mode gre

# Specify 12.12.12.1 as the source address of interface Tunnel 1.

[DeviceA-Tunnel1] source 12.12.12.1

# Specify 23.23.23.3 as the destination address of interface Tunnel 1.

[DeviceA-Tunnel1] destination 23.23.23.3

# Configure interface Tunnel 1 to borrow an IP address from loopback 0.

[DeviceA-Tunnel1] ip address unnumbered interface loopback 0

[DeviceA-Tunnel1] quit

# Configure a static route from Device A through the tunnel interface to Group B.

[DeviceA] ip route-static 10.2.1.0 255.255.255.0 tunnel 1

Configuring Device B

1.     Assign IP addresses to the interfaces:

# Assign an IP address to VLAN-interface 12.

<DeviceB> system-view

[DeviceB] interface vlan-interface 12

[DeviceB-Vlan-interface12] ip address 12.12.12.2 24

[DeviceB-Vlan-interface12] quit

# Assign an IP address to VLAN-interface 23 in the same way an IP address is assigned to VLAN-interface 12. (Details not shown.)

2.     Configure OSPF:

# Enable OSPF process 1.

[DeviceB] ospf 1

# Create Area 0 and specifyVLAN-interface 12 whose IP address is on network 12.12.12.0/24 to run OSPF in Area 0.

[DeviceB-ospf-1] area 0

[DeviceB-ospf-1-area-0.0.0.0] network 12.12.12.0 0.0.0.255

# Create Area 0 and specify VLAN-interface 23 whose IP address is on network 23.23.23.0/24 to run OSPF in Area 0.

[DeviceB-ospf-1-area-0.0.0.0] network 23.23.23.0 0.0.0.255

[DeviceB-ospf-1-area-0.0.0.0] quit

[DeviceB-ospf-1] quit

Configuring Device C

1.     Assign IP addresses to the interfaces:

#Assign an IP address to VLAN-interface 23.

<DeviceC> system-view

[DeviceC] interface vlan-interface 23

[DeviceC-Vlan-interface10] ip address 23.23.23.3 24

[DeviceC-Vlan-interface10] quit

# Assign IP addresses to other interfaces in the same way an IP address is assigned to VLAN-interface 23. (Details not shown.)

2.     Configure OSPF:

# Enable OSPF process 1.

[DeviceC] ospf 1

# Create Area 0 and specify VLAN-interface 23 whose IP address is on network 23.23.23.0/24 to run OSPF in Area 0.

[DeviceC-ospf-1] area 0

[DeviceC-ospf-1-area-0.0.0.0] network 23.23.23.0 0.0.0.255

[DeviceC-ospf-1-area-0.0.0.0] quit

# Create service loopback group 1 and specify the unicast tunnel service for the group.

[DeviceC] service-loopback group 1 type tunnel

[DeviceC] interface gigabitethernet 3/0/3
