IP Configuration
Name Enter a descriptive name for identification purposes for this rule.
IP Address Enter an IPv4 or IPv6 address for a cluster.
MAC Address Enter a multicast or unicast MAC address added in the Advanced Application > NLB screen.
The last binary bit of the first octet pair in a multicast MAC address must be 1. For example, the
first octet pair 00000001 is 01 and 00000011 is 03 in hexadecimal, so 01:00:5e:00:00:0A and
03:00:5e:00:00:27 are valid multicast MAC addresses.
The last binary bit of the first octet pair in a unicast MAC address must be 0. For example, the
first octet pair 00000000 is 00 and 00000010 is 02 in hexadecimal, so 00:00:5e:00:00:0A and
02:00:5e:00:00:27 are valid unicast MAC addresses.
Add Click Add to save your changes to the Switch’s run-time memory. The Switch loses these
changes if it is turned off or loses power, so use the Save link on the top navigation panel to
save your changes to the non-volatile memory when you are done configuring.
