The port names (strings) displayed in the Ethernet Groups table represent the physical
ports on the device. For the mapping of these strings to the physical ports, see Configuring
Physical Ethernet Ports on page 138.
The following procedure describes how to configure Ethernet Groups through the Web
interface. You can also configure it through ini file (EtherGroupTable) or CLI (configure
network > ether-group).
Note:
• If you want to assign a port to a different Ethernet Group, you must first remove
the port from its current Ethernet Group. To remove the port, configure the
'Member' field so that no port is selected or select a different port.
• As all ports have the same MAC address, you must connect each port to a
different Layer-2 switch.
• When implementing 1+1 Ethernet port redundancy, each port in the Ethernet
Group (port pair) must be connected to a different switch (but in the same subnet).
To configure Ethernet Groups:
1. Open the Ethernet Groups table (Setup menu > IP Network tab > Core Entities
folder > Ethernet Groups).
2. Select the Ethernet Group that you want to configure, and then click Edit; the following
dialog box appears:
3. Configure the Ethernet Group according to the parameters described in the table
below.
4. Click Apply, and then save your settings to flash memory.
