Default IPv6 Port: Unless you specify a specific Port to be used as
Default Port, the factory default port eth0 will be used as the gate-
way (default gateway).
The General Settings window also displays the IPv4 Address and default
IPv4 Gateway.
2.14.2 Network Ports
Ports act as communication endpoints in a network. The hardware configuration
of your unit will determine which ports (e.g., Eth0, Eth1, ...) are available for use.
To enable & configure, or view a network port:
1.
Navigate to MANAGEMENT > NETWORK: Network Setup.
2.
The Ports panel on the right side of the screen lists the available Ethernet
ports, and their connection STATUS:
Green: CONNECTED (showing the connection speed)
Yellow: CABLE UNPLUGGED (the port is enabled but there is no
cable attached)
Red: DISABLED.
Locate the port you want to configure (eth0 or eth1) and click the
GEAR button to enable & configure the port, or the INFO button to
view the port status.
3. Ethernet ports are enabled by default. If the port is not already enabled, in
the Edit Ethernet Ports Settings window, click the Enable check box. The
Edit Ethernet 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
administrator. In the form “xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx.” See "Subnet Mask Val-
ues" on page71 for a list of subnet mask values.
