Ethernet Auto-Negotiation
The Ethernet ports LAN1-LAN4 ports can be configured to allow automatic
negotiation of their connection speeds. When the Speed setting for a port is set to
“Auto” (default), auto-negotiation is enabled and the SyncServer S6x0 will advertise
connection speeds of 100/1000M. The user can also select a connection speed for
a port of 100M or 1000M to configure the speed used by auto-negotiation.
IP Version
The Ethernet ports LAN1-LAN4 ports can be individually configured for either an
IPv4 or IPv6 address. Use the dot-decimal notation format xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx to enter
the IPv4 address parameter.
Configuration - DHCP or Static
The SyncServer S6x0 supports static as well as dynamically allocated IP addresses
on the Ethernet ports LAN1 - LAN4. For a dynamically allocated address with the
DHCP setting, a connection to a DHCP server is required. In Static mode, the user
must configure the IP parameters (Host Address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway
Address) for the Ethernet port.

Note:
The LAN1 interface should not be configured with the same
address as any of the other Ethernet ports. If this is done, then network
access could be lost to the LAN1 management
interface.
All Ethernet Interfaces (LAN1, LAN2, LAN3, and LAN4) must be
configured to be in different subnets/networks. If any two or more IP
interfaces have the same subnet, those interfaces will not function
properly.
