| Logical Interfaces |
|
Add Logical Interfaces
|
Defines one or more logical units that you connect
to this physical Gigabit Ethernet interface. You must define at least
one logical unit for a Gigabit Ethernet interface.
|
Click Add.
|
|
Logical Interface Description
|
(Optional) Describes the logical interface.
|
Type a text description of the logical interface
to more clearly identify it in monitoring displays.
|
|
IPv4 Addresses and Prefixes
|
Specifies one or more IPv4 addresses for the interface.
|
- Type one or more IPv4 addresses and prefixes.
For example:
10.10.10.10/24.
- Click Add.
- Click OK.
To delete an IP address and prefix, select them in
the Source Addresses and Prefixes dialog box, then click Delete
|
|
ARP Address
|
Enables the device to create a static Address Resolution Protocol
(ARP) entry for this interface by specifying the IP address of a node
to associate with its media access control (MAC) address. The IP address
must be in the same subnet as the IPv4 address or prefix of the interface
you are configuring.
Static ARP entries associate the IP addresses and MAC addresses
of nodes on the same subnet, enabling the device to respond to ARP
requests having destination addresses that are not local to the incoming
interface.
|
Type an IPv4 address that you want to associate with
the MAC address—for example, 10.10.10.1.
|
|
MAC Address
|
Specifies the hardware media access control (MAC)
address associated with the ARP address.
The MAC address uniquely identifies the system and is expressed
in the following format: mm:mm:mm:ss:ss:ss. The first three octets
denote the hardware manufacturer ID, and the last three are serial
numbers identifying the device.
|
Type the MAC address to be mapped to the ARP entry—for
example,
00:12:1E:A9:8A:80.
|
|
Publish
|
Enables the device to reply to ARP requests for the specified
address.
|
- To enable publishing, select the
check box.
- To disable publishing, clear the
check box.
|
|
Physical Interface Description
|
(Optional) Adds supplementary information about the
physical Gigabit Ethernet interface.
|
Type a text description of the Gigabit Ethernet interface
to more clearly identify it in monitoring displays.
|
|
MTU (bytes)
|
Specifies the maximum transmission unit size for
the Gigabit Ethernet interface.
|
Type a value between 256 and 9014 bytes. The default
MTU for Gigabit Ethernet interfaces is 1514.
|
|
Per Unit Scheduler
|
Enables scheduling on logical interfaces.
Allows you to configure multiple output queues on
a logical interface and associate an output scheduler and shaping
rate with the queues.
|
- To enable scheduling, select the
check box.
- To disable scheduling, clear the
check box.

Options |
|
Loopback
|
Enables or disables the loopback option.
|
Select Yes to enable the loopback
diagnostic option, or select No to disable the
loopback option. By default, loopback is disabled.
|
|
Auto Negotiation
|
Enables or disables auto negotiation.
By default, Gigabit Ethernet interfaces auto negotiate
the link mode and speed settings. If you disable auto negotiation
and do not manually configure link mode and speed, the link is negotiated
at 1000 Mbps, full duplex.
When you configure both the link mode and the speed,
the link negotiates with the manually configured settings whether
auto negotiation is enabled or disabled.
|
Select Yes to enable auto negotiation,
or select No to disable it. By default, auto-negotiation
is enabled.
|
|
Auto Negotiation Remote Fault
|
Indicates the auto negotiation remote fault value.
|
Select the auto-negotiation remote fault value from
the list of options given. This field is enabled only if auto negotiation
is enabled.
|
|
Source MAC Address Filters
|
Displays the list of media access control (MAC) addresses
from which you want to receive packets on this interface.
|
To add MAC addresses, type them in the boxes above
the Add button, then click Add.
