66 Hog 4 Operations Manual
3.3.1 Configuring Console Network Adapters
At the top of the HogNet tab in the Control Panel, is a drop down menu of all the installed
network adapters usable by the Hog OS. The Hog 4 console will only list one network adapter
and it will be greyed out while Windows computers running Hog 4 PC might have more than
one network adapter listed depending on how many network adapters are installed and
enabled on the computer.
The network pane of the control panel
After selecting an adapter from the drop down menu, the area below the menu will show the
adapter’s current status:
A link status of Up indicates the adapter is connected to a network and is ready to be
configured to communicate to other network devices.
A link status of Disconn ected indicates the adapter is running but is unable to
communicate to other nodes because the network cable is not connected to a network.
A link status of Do wn indicates the adapter is either disabled or in an unstable state
and is not usable for show operation.
Important: Only network adapters with a link state of UP will be able to communicate with
other nodes on the network. If none of the listed adapters are in the UP state then the Hog 4
OS will not operate on a network and will instead operate as a standalone console using a
loopback address.
