Interfaces
The Interfaces menu allows the administrator to configure the Ethernet ports of Red Lion RTU or routers to
incorporate within their existing network topology.
Interfaces available may include eth0 (WAN), eth1 (LAN), Wifi, USB and IPv6. These will only be present if your
hardware supports these interfaces. These ports are ‘auto-sensing’, allowing for greater flexibility.
eth0

and
eth1(LAN)

(Network
Interfaces)
The configuration procedure of the Ethernet ports is the same for eth0 and eth1, therefore this section will only
reference the configuration of “WAN”/’eth0’. Please refer to this section when configuring “LAN”/’eth1’.
Click on the
eth0 (WAN)
menu item, select
Yes
and the following window appears:
Enable eth0 Interface:
This field determines if the specified Ethernet port is enabled, allowing the
administrator to disable the port if necessary.
Interface Speed/Duplex:
Select the Speed and Duplex to be used for the physical interface. The
recommended setting for this field is Auto-Detect.
•
Auto Detect: Use the ‘best negotiated’ speed and duplex. (default)
•
10Mbps/Half: Force the interface to 10 Mbps and half-duplex.
