Network interface
A network interface is the interface used to
connect a network device with a network. It
can be a wireless LAN radio module for wire
less connections or a network port for cabled
connections.
Properties and Benefits
The table with the network connections has the following properties
that can be useful in organizing and keeping track of the IP network:
•
Overview: The table offers an overview of the entire IP network of
the FRITZ!Box.
•
All connections: Every connection any network device has to the
FRITZ!Box is displayed. A connection can be established with a
network cable, via wireless LAN, or over VPN. A network device
that is connected sometimes with a network cable, and some
times via wireless LAN, has two entries in the table, one for each
connection.
•
Inactive connections: Even connections that are currently not
active are displayed.
•
Windows users: If the network includes Windows computers on
which AVM parental controls software is installed, the Windows
users of these computers are also displayed.
•
Only shown here: VPN connections are displayed only in this table.
•
Guest network overview: Connections to the guest network are
displayed.
•
Connection properties: Properties are displayed for every connec
tion.
