Parameter description:
IP Configuration

Mode:
Configure whether the IP stack should act as a Host or a Router. In Host mode, IP traffic
between interfaces will not be routed. In Router mode traffic is routed between all
interfaces.

DNS Server
This setting controls the DNS name resolution done by the switch. The following modes are
supported:

From any DHCP interfaces
The first DNS server offered from a DHCP lease to a DHCP-enabled interface will be
used.

No DNS server
No DNS server will be used.

Configured
Explicitly provide the IP address of the DNS Server in dotted decimal notation.

From this DHCP interface
Specify from which DHCP-enabled interface a provided DNS server should be
preferred.

DNS Proxy
When DNS proxy is enabled, system will relay DNS requests to the currently configured
DNS server, and reply as a DNS resolver to the client devices on the network.
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
