Each field is described in the following table.
Table 26 Monitor > System Status > Interface Status
LABEL DESCRIPTION
Interface Status
IPv6 Interface
Status
Use the Interface Status section for IPv4 network settings. Use the IPv6 Interface Status section
for IPv6 network settings if you connect your NXC to an IPv6 network. Both sections have similar
fields as described below.
Name This field displays the name of each interface.
Port This field displays the physical port number.
Status This field displays the current status of each interface. The possible values depend on what
type of interface it is.
For Ethernet interfaces:
Inactive - The Ethernet interface is disabled.
Down - The Ethernet interface is enabled but not connected.
Speed / Duplex - The Ethernet interface is enabled and connected. This field displays the port
speed and duplex setting (Full or Half).
For VLAN interfaces:
Up - The VLAN interface is enabled and one of its member Ethernet interfaces is connected.
Down - The VLAN interface is enabled but none of its member Ethernet interfaces is connected.
Inactive - The VLAN interface is disabled.
Zone This field displays the zone to which the interface is assigned.
IP Addr/Netmask
IP Address
This field displays the current IP address (and subnet mask) of the interface. If the IP address
and subnet mask are 0.0.0.0 (in the IPv4 network) or the IP address is :: (in the IPv6 network), the
interface is disabled or does not have an IP address yet.
In the IPv6 network, this screen also shows whether the IP address is a static IP address (STATIC),
link-local IP address (LINK LOCAL), dynamically assigned (DHCP), or an IPv6 StateLess Address
AutoConfiguration IP address (SLAAC). See Appendix E on page 502 for more information
about IPv6.
IP Assignment This field displays how the interface gets its IP address.
Static - This interface has a static IP address.
DHCP Client - This interface gets its IP address from a DHCP server.
Services This field lists which services the interface provides to the network. Examples include DHCP relay
and DHCP server. This field displays n/a if the interface does not provide any services to the
network.
Action Use this field to get or to update the IP address for the interface. Click Renew to send a new
DHCP request to a DHCP server. Click Connect to try to connect the interface. If the interface
cannot use one of these ways to get or to update its IP address, this field displays n/a.
