IP Interfaces

Delete :
Select this option to delete an existing IP interface.

VLAN :
The VLAN associated with the IP interface. Only ports in this VLAN will be able to access the
IP interface. This field is only available for input when creating an new interface.

IPv4 DHCP Enabled :
Enable the DHCP client by checking this box. If this option is enabled, the system will
configure the IPv4 address and mask of the interface using the DHCP protocol. The DHCP
client will announce the configured System Name as hostname to provide DNS lookup.

IPv4 DHCP Fallback Timeout :
The number of seconds for trying to obtain a DHCP lease. After this period expires, a
configured IPv4 address will be used as IPv4 interface address. A value of zero disables the
fallback mechanism, such that DHCP will keep retrying until a valid lease is obtained. Legal
values are 0 to 4294967295 seconds.

IPv4 DHCP Current Lease :
For DHCP interfaces with an active lease, this column show the current interface address, as
provided by the DHCP server.

IPv4 Address :
The IPv4 address of the interface in dotted decimal notation.
If DHCP is enabled, this field is not used. The field may also be left blank if IPv4 operation
on the interface is not desired.

IPv4 Mask :
The IPv4 network mask, in number of bits (prefix length). Valid values are between 0 and
30 bits for a IPv4 address.
If DHCP is enabled, this field is not used. The field may also be left blank if IPv4 operation
on the interface is not desired.

IPv6 Address :
The IPv6 address of the interface. A IPv6 address is in 128-bit records represented as eight
fields of up to four hexadecimal digits with a colon separating each field (:). For example,
fe80::215:c5ff:fe03:4dc7. The symbol :: is a special syntax that can be used as a shorthand
way of representing multiple 16-bit groups of contiguous zeros; but it can appear only
once. It can also represent a legally valid IPv4 address. For example, ::192.1.2.34.
The field may be left blank if IPv6 operation on the interface is not desired.

IPv6 Mask :
The IPv6 network mask, in number of bits (prefix length). Valid values are between 1 and
128 bits for a IPv6 address.
The field may be left blank if IPv6 operation on the interface is not desired.
IP Routes

Delete :
Select this option to delete an existing IP route.

Network :
The destination IP network or host address of this route. Valid format is dotted decimal
notation or a valid IPv6 notation. A default route can use the value 0.0.0.0 or IPv6 ::
notation.
