Chapter 9 Interfaces Table 99 Configuration > Network > Interface > Ethernet (continued) LABEL DESCRIPTION IP Address This field displays the current IP address of the interface. If the IP address is 0.0.0.0 (on the IPv4 network) or :: (on the IPv6 network), the interface does not have an IP address yet. On 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 Apply Reset On the IPv6 network, this screen also shows whether the IP address is a static IP address (STATIC), link-local IP address (LINK LOCAL), dynamically assigned (DHCP), or an IPv6 StateLess Address AutoConfiguration IP address (SLAAC). See Section 9.1.2 on page 238 for more information about IPv6. This field displays the interface's subnet mask in dot decimal notation. Click Apply to save your changes back to the Zyxel Device. Click Reset to return the screen to its last-saved settings. 9.4.1 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, click an Edit icon on the Ethernet Summary screen. (See Section 9.4 on page 245.) The OPT interface's Edit > Configuration screen is shown here as an example. The screens for other interfaces are similar and contain a subset to the OPT interface screen's fields. Note: If you create IP address objects based on an interface's IP address, subnet, or gateway, the Zyxel Device automatically updates every rule or setting that uses the object whenever the interface's IP address settings change. For example, if you change the VLAN's IP address, the Zyxel Device automatically updates the corresponding interface-based, 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 Zyxel Device can receive routing information, send routing information, or do both. • Select which version of RIP to support in each direction - The Zyxel Device supports RIP-1, RIP-2, and both versions. • Select the broadcasting method used by RIP-2 packets - The Zyxel Device 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 Zyxel Device 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. ZyWALL ATP Series User's Guide 247
