Ports Settings window will expand to show the options needed to complete the
port setup.
Fill in the fields as required:
Enable eth0: [Checkbox]
Enable DHCPv4: [Checkbox] Check this box to enable the delivery of IP
addresses from a DHCP Server using the DHCPv4 protocol.
Static IPv4 Address: This is the default, or the unique address assigned by
the network administrator.
The default subnet is: 255.255.0.0
Netmask: This is the network subnet mask assigned by the network admin-
istrator. In the form “ xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx.” See "Subnet Mask Values" on
page55 for a list of subnet mask values.
IPv4 Gateway : The gateway (default router) address is needed if com-
munication to the SecureSync is made outside of the local network. By
default, the gateway is disabled.
Enable IPv6 Autoconfiguration: [Checkbox]
Domain: This is the domain name to be associated with this port.
DNS Primary : This is the primary DNS address to be used for this port.
Depending on how your DHCP server is configured, this is set automatically
once DHCP is enabled. Alternatively, you may configure your DHCP server to
NOT use a DNS address. When DHCP is disabled, DNS Primary is set manu-
ally, using the format "#.#.#.#" with no leading zeroes or spaces, where each
‘#’ is a decimal integer from the range [0,255].
DNS Secondary: This is the secondary DNS address to be used for this port.
Depending on how your DHCP server is configured, this is set automatically
once DHCP is enabled, or your DHCP server may be configured NOT to set a
DNS address. When DHCP is disabled, DNS Secondary is set manually, using
the format “#.#.#.#” with no leading zeroes or spaces, where each ‘#’ is a
decimal integer from the range [0,255].
MTU: Maximum Transmission Unit. Range (for Ethernetv2): Default: 1500
bytes. Smaller packages are recommended, if encapsulation is required e.g.,
to meet encryption needs, which would cause the maximum package size to
be exceeded. If the MTU is programmed outside of the default, SecureSync
will automatically round up any entry into the nearest multiple of 64 to follow
Linux requirements.
Edit IPv6 Address: Click on this button to configure a static IPv6 address.
