LAN interface alignment with several LNE modules in operation:
Basically, the physical network ports are assigned according to the MAC address order. Thus, the uppermost
interface on a LNE module has the lowest and the bottommost interface has the highest MAC address, respec-
tively. Let´s take an example where three LNE modules are inserted in a device. Then the logical order of
network interfaces assigned in a webinterface follows the MAC address order of LNE modules, disregarding the
I/O slot order by which the modules are inserted.
In a factory assembling, LNE modules are sorted in an ascending order starting from left to right (see the
corresponding figure above). LAN 0 is therefore always the first network interface of the LAN-CPU.
