User's Manual 11. Network
The Multiple Interface Table page allows you to configure these network interfaces. Each
row of the table defines a logical IP interface with the following attributes:

Application type allowed on the interface:
•
Control - call control signaling traffic (i.e., SIP)
•
Media - RTP traffic
•
Operations, Administration, Maintenance and Provisioning (OAMP) -
management (such as Web- and SNMP-based management)

IP address and subnet mask represented by prefix length (IPv4 and IPv6 Internet
Layer protocols)

VLAN ID (if VLANs are enabled)

Default Gateway - traffic from this interface destined to a subnet that does not meet
any of the routing rules, local or static routes, are forwarded to this gateway (as long
this application type is allowed on this interface.

Primary and secondary DNS IP address (optional)
You can configure up to 32 interfaces, consisting of up to 31 Control and Media interfaces
and 1 OAMP interface.
This page also provides VLAN-related parameters for enabling VLANs and defining the
Native VLAN ID. This is the VLAN ID to which incoming, untagged packets are assigned.
You can also configure Quality of Service (QoS) by assigning VLAN priorities and
Differentiated Services (DiffServ) for the supported Class of Service (CoS). For configuring
Quality of Service (QoS), see 'Configuring the QoS Settings' on page
130 .
Complementing the Multiple Interface table is the IP Routing table, which allows you to
define static routing rules for non-local hosts/subnets. For more information, see
'Configuring the IP Routing Table' on page
126 .
Notes:
•
When adding more than one interface, ensure that you enable VLANs
using the 'VLAN Mode' (VlANMode) parameter.
•
When booting using BootP/DHCP protocols, an IP address is obtained
from the server. This address is used as the OAMP address for this
session, overriding the IP address configured in the Multiple Interface
table. The address specified in this table takes effect only after you save
the configuration to the device's flash memory. This enables the device
to use a temporary IP address for initial management and configuration,
while retaining the address configured in this table for deployment.
•
When Physical Network Separation of network traffic is enabled, user
VLANs are not supported. For more information, see Physical Network
Separation Mode on page
509 .
•
To configure firewall rules (access list) for allowing or blocking packets
received from specific IP network interfaces, see 'Configuring Firewall
Settings' on page
145 .
•
The Multiple Interface table can also be configured using the table ini file
parameter, InterfaceTable (see 'Networking Parameters' on page
643 ).
