Ethernet Port Group Editor
A Port Group represents a logical grouping of Ethernet
ports. Any computers physically connected to ports in a
group will be allowed to freely communicate with each
other.
Since the IBR600/IBR650 has only 2 Ethernet ports, this
feature will rarely be necessary. It is possible, however, to
set both ports as LAN ports (or both ports as WAN ports)
and then either separate them or group them together.
(For example, you could use one for the primary network
and one for a guest network, or you could use both for the
primary network.)
NOTE: When a port group uses the LAN mode you must separately
ensure that this logical interface is attached to a
Local IP Network
in
the top panel of this page.
Port Group ID:
The Group ID field provides a reference to
this grouping of ports to be used in other parts of the router
configuration. For example, this ID is referenced in the
Local IP Networks
configuration to attach this logical group of Ethernet ports with a network configuration. Use a simple
short text phrase to describe a group, such as "main", "guestports", "backup_wan", etc.
Select
one or more ports to create a port group that you can subsequently attach to a network in the
Local Network
Editor
. Double-click on any of the Ethernet ports shown on the left in the
Available
section to move them to the
Selected
section on the right (or highlight a port and click the + button). To deselect an Ethernet port, double-click on an interface in
the
Selected
section (or highlight the port and click the – button).
