Chapter 8 Interfaces Table 40 Configuration > Network > Interface > Ethernet (continued) LABEL # DESCRIPTION This field is a sequential value, and it is not associated with any interface. Status This icon is lit when the entry is active and dimmed when the entry is inactive. Name This field displays the name of the interface. IP Address This field displays the current IP address of the interface. If the IP address is 0.0.0.0 (in the IPv4 network), the interface does not have an IP address yet. In the IPv4 network, this screen also shows whether the IP address is a static IP address (STATIC) or dynamically assigned (DHCP). IP addresses are always static in virtual interfaces. Mask This field displays the interface's subnet mask in dot decimal notation. Apply Reset Click Apply to save your changes back to the UAG. Click Reset to return the screen to its last-saved settings. 8.3.1 Ethernet Edit The Ethernet Edit screen lets you configure IP address assignment, interface parameters, RIP settings, OSPF settings, DHCP settings, connectivity check, and MAC address settings. To access this screen, select an entry in the Ethernet summary screen and click the Edit icon. (See Section 8.3 on page 107.) Note: If you create IP address objects based on an interface's IP address, subnet, or gateway, the UAG automatically updates every rule or setting that uses the object whenever the interface's IP address settings change. For example, if you change the LAN's IP address, the UAG automatically updates the corresponding interfacebased, LAN subnet address object. With RIP, you can use Ethernet interfaces to do the following things. • Enable and disable RIP in the underlying physical port or port group. • Select which direction(s) routing information is exchanged - The UAG can receive routing information, send routing information, or do both. • Select which version of RIP to support in each direction - The UAG supports RIP-1, RIP-2, and both versions. • Select the broadcasting method used by RIP-2 packets - The UAG can use subnet broadcasting or multicasting. With OSPF, you can use Ethernet interfaces to do the following things. • Enable and disable OSPF in the underlying physical port or port group. • Select the area to which the interface belongs. • Override the default link cost and authentication method for the selected area. • Select in which direction(s) routing information is exchanged - The UAG can receive routing information, send routing information, or do both. • Set the priority used to identify the DR or BDR if one does not exist. 108 UAG715 User's Guide
