Chapter 9 Interfaces This screen's fields are described in the table below. Table 65 Configuration > Network > Interface > Ethernet > Edit LABEL DESCRIPTION IPv4/IPv6 View / IPv4 View / IPv6 View Show / Hide Advanced Settings Create New Object General Settings Enable Interface General IPv6 Setting Enable IPv6 Interface Properties Interface Type Use this button to display both IPv4 and IPv6, IPv4-only, or IPv6-only configuration fields. Click this button to display a greater or lesser number of configuration fields. Click this button to create a DHCPv6 request object that you may use for the DHCPv6 settings in this screen. Select this to enable this interface. Clear this to disable this interface. Select this to enable IPv6 on this interface. Clear this to disable it. Select to which type of network you will connect this interface. When you select internal or external the rest of the screen's options automatically adjust to correspond. The NXC automatically adds default route and SNAT settings for traffic it routes from internal interfaces to external interfaces; for example LAN to WAN traffic. Select internal to connect to a local network. Other corresponding configuration options: DHCP server and DHCP relay. The NXC automatically adds default SNAT settings for traffic flowing from this interface to an external interface. Select external to connect to an external network (like the Internet). Interface Name Port PVID If you select general, the rest of the screen's options do not automatically adjust and you must manually configure a policy route to add routing and SNAT settings for the interface. Specify a name for the interface. It can use alphanumeric characters, hyphens, and underscores, and it can be up to 11 characters long. This indicates the port that you are currently editing. A PVID (Port VLAN ID) is a tag that adds to incoming untagged frames received on a port so that the frames are forwarded to the VLAN group that the tag defines. Zone MAC Address Description IP Address Assignment Get Automatically Use Fixed IP Address IP Address Enter the PVID for this port (1~4094). Select a zone with which to associate this port. This field is read-only. This is the MAC address that the Ethernet interface uses. Enter a description of this interface. It is not used elsewhere. You can use alphanumeric and characters, and it can be up to 60 characters long. These IP address fields configure an IP address on the interface itself. If you change this IP address on the interface, you may also need to change a related address object for the network connected to the interface. For example, if you use this screen to change the IP address of your LAN interface, you should also change the corresponding LAN subnet address object. This option appears when you set the Interface Type to external or general. Select this to make the interface a DHCP client and automatically get the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address from a DHCP server. This option appears when you set the Interface Type to external or general. Select this if you want to specify the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway manually. This field is enabled if you set the Interface Type to internal or you select Use Fixed IP Address. Enter the IP address for this interface. NXC Series User's Guide 151
