Eth1/Eth2 Settings IP Address (if specifying) Subnet Mask (if specifying) Eth1/Eth2 IPv6 Address Eth1/Eth2 Mode Eth1/Eth2 MTU Eth1/Eth2 Multicast Enable IPv6 Disabled: If selected, disables the network port. Defaults are Eth1 and Eth2 enabled. Obtain from DHCP: Acquires IP address, subnet mask, hostname and gateway from the DHCP server. (The DHCP server may not provide the hostname gateway, depending on its setup.) This is the default setting. If you select this option, skip to Gateway. Obtain from BOOTP: Lets a network node request configuration information from a BOOTP "server" node. If you select this option, skip to Gateway. Specify: Lets you manually assign a static IP address, generally provided by the system administrator. Enter an IP address that will be unique and valid on your network. There is no default. Enter all IP addresses in dot-quad notation. Do not use leading zeros in the fields for dot-quad numbers less than 100. For example, if your IP address is 172.19.201.28, do not enter 028 for the last segment. Note: Currently, the SLC console manager does not support configurations with the same IP subnet on multiple interfaces (Ethernet or PPP). If specifying an IP address, enter the network segment on which the SLC console manager resides. There is no default. Address of the port in IPv6 format. Note: The SLC console manager supports IPv6 connections for a limited set of services: the web, ssh, and Telnet. IPv6 addresses are written as 8 sets of 4-digit hexadecimal numbers separated by colons. There are several rules for modifying the address. For example, 1234:0BCD:1D67:0000:0000:8375:BADD:0057 may be shortened to 1234:BCD:1D67::8375:BADD:57. Select the direction (full duplex or half-duplex) and speed (10 or 100Mbit) of data transmission. The default is Auto, which allows the Ethernet port to auto-negotiate the speed and duplex with the hardware endpoint to which it is connected. Specifies the Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) or Maximum Packet Size of packets at the IP layer (OSI layer 3) for the Ethernet port. When fragmenting a datagram, this is the largest number of bytes that can be used in a packet. Displays the multicast address of the Ethernet port. Check this box to enable IPv6. You must reboot the SLC console manager to enable IPv6. SLC™ Console Manager User Guide 50

2.
Enter the following fields.
Ethernet Interfaces
Note:
Configurations with the same IP subnet on multiple interfaces (Ethernet or PPP)
are not currently supported.
Eth1/Eth2
Settings
Disabled:
If selected, disables the network port. Defaults are Eth1 and Eth2
enabled.
Obtain from DHCP:
Acquires IP address, subnet mask, hostname and gateway
from the DHCP server. (The DHCP server may not provide the hostname gateway,
depending on its setup.) This is the default setting. If you select this option, skip to
Gateway
.
Obtain from BOOTP:
Lets a network node request configuration information from
a BOOTP “server” node. If you select this option, skip to
Gateway
.
Specify:
Lets you manually assign a static IP address, generally provided by the
system administrator.
IP Address
(if specifying)
Enter an IP address that will be unique and valid on your network. There is no
default.
Enter all IP addresses in dot-quad notation. Do not use leading zeros in the fields
for dot-quad numbers less than 100. For example, if your IP address is
172.19.201.28, do not enter 028 for the last segment.
Note:
Currently, the SLC console manager does not support configurations with
the same IP subnet on multiple interfaces (Ethernet or PPP).
Subnet Mask
(if specifying)
If specifying an IP address, enter the network segment on which the SLC console
manager resides. There is no default.
Eth1/Eth2 IPv6
Address
Address of the port in IPv6 format.
Note:
The SLC console manager supports IPv6 connections for a limited set of
services: the web, ssh, and Telnet.
IPv6 addresses are written as 8 sets of 4-digit hexadecimal numbers separated by
colons. There are several rules for modifying the address. For example,
1234:0BCD:1D67:0000:0000:8375:BADD:0057 may be shortened to
1234:BCD:1D67::8375:BADD:57.
Eth1/Eth2 Mode
Select the direction (full duplex or half-duplex) and speed (10 or 100Mbit) of data
transmission. The default is
Auto
, which allows the Ethernet port to auto-negotiate
the speed and duplex with the hardware endpoint to which it is connected.
Eth1/Eth2 MTU
Specifies the Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) or Maximum Packet Size of
packets at the IP layer (OSI layer 3) for the Ethernet port. When fragmenting a
datagram, this is the largest number of bytes that can be used in a packet.
Eth1/Eth2
Multicast
Displays the multicast address of the Ethernet port.
Enable IPv6
Check this box to enable IPv6. You must reboot the SLC console manager to
enable IPv6.
