Control | Description |
Enable Primary Interface | Enables the primary interface. Caution: The remaining Primary Interface settings are activated only when this box is selected. |
Obtain IPv4 Address Automatically | Specify this option to automatically obtain the IPv4 address from a DHCP server. A DHCP server must be available so that the system can request the IP address from it. Caution: The primary and in-path interfaces can share the same subnet. The primary and auxiliary interfaces cannot share the same network subnet. |
Specify IPv4 Address Manually | Specify this option if you do not use a DHCP server to set the IP address. Specify the following settings: • IPv4 Address - Specify an IPv4 address. • IPv4 Subnet Mask - Specify a subnet mask. • Default IPv4 Gateway - Specify the primary gateway IP address. The primary gateway must be in the same network as the primary interface. You must set the primary gateway for in-path configurations. |
Speed and Duplex | Speed - Select a speed from the drop-down list. The default value is Auto. Duplex - Select Auto, Full, or Half from the drop-down list. The default value is Auto. If your network routers or switches do not automatically negotiate the speed and duplex, be sure to set them manually. |
MTU | Specify the MTU value. The MTU is the largest physical packet size, measured in bytes, that a network can send. The default value is 1500. |
