Huawei Router Interface Configuration
Huawei Router Interface Configuration
Configuration
As you can see above, there are two types interfaces. These are :
▪ Pyhsical Interfaces
▪ Loopback Interfaces
In this configuration example, we have 1 loopback and 1 physical interface per router.
Physical interface configuration will be done for the communication of two router. Loopback
interface configuration is done for other special activities.Here, we will also configure it only
to show you that it is not different than a physical interface configuration.
Let’s start the configuration with Router A.
In Router A, firstly we will con figure Gigabit Ethernet 0/0/0 interface IP Address with its
Subnet Mask. After this, we will open the port. Because by default router ports are shutdown.
We will use “undo shutdown” command to open the port.
<Huawei-RouterA> system-view
[Huawei-RouterA] interface GigabitEthernet 0/0/0
[Huawei-RouterA-GigabitEthernet0/0/0] ip address 192.168.0.1 255.255.255.0
[Huawei-RouterA-GigabitEthernet0/0/0] undo shutdown
[Huawei-RouterA-GigabitEthernet0/0/0] quit
Now, it is time to configure Router B. We will do the same configuration steps for Router B
too. Only the IP Addresses will change.
