Table 43 Monitor > System Status > Interface Status (continued)
LABEL DESCRIPTION
Status This field displays the current status of each interface. The possible values depend on what
type of interface it is.
For Ethernet interfaces:
• Inactive - The Ethernet interface is disabled.
• Down - The Ethernet interface does not have any physical ports associated with it or
the Ethernet interface is enabled but not connected.
• Speed / Duplex - The Ethernet interface is enabled and connected. This field displays
the port speed and duplex setting (Full or Half).
For cellular (mobile broadband) interfaces, see
the status that can appear.
For the auxiliary interface:
• Inactive - The auxiliary interface is disabled.
• Connected - The auxiliary interface is enabled and connected.
• Disconnected - The auxiliary interface is not connected.
For virtual interfaces, this field always displays Up. If the virtual interface is disabled, it
does not appear in the list.
For VLAN and bridge interfaces, this field always displays Up. If the VLAN or bridge
interface is disabled, it does not appear in the list.
For PPP interfaces:
• Connected - The PPP interface is connected.
• Disconnected - The PPP interface is not connected.
If the PPP interface is disabled, it does not appear in the list.
For WLAN interfaces:
• Up - The WLAN interface is enabled.
• Down - The WLAN interface is disabled.
HA Status This field displays the status of the interface in the virtual router.
• Active - This interface is the master interface in the virtual router.
• Stand-By - This interface is a backup interface in the virtual router.
• Fault - This VRRP group is not functioning in the virtual router right now. For example,
this might happen if the interface is down.
• n/a - Device HA is not active on the interface.
Zone This field displays the zone to which the interface is assigned.
IP Addr/Netmask This field displays the current IP address and subnet mask assigned to the interface. If the
IP address and subnet mask are 0.0.0.0, the interface is disabled or did not receive an IP
address and subnet mask via DHCP.
If this interface is a member of an active virtual router, this field displays the IP address it
is currently using. This is either the static IP address of the interface (if it is the master) or
the management IP address (if it is a backup).
IP Assignment This field displays how the interface gets its IP address.
• Static - This interface has a static IP address.
• DHCP Client - This interface gets its IP address from a DHCP server.
Services This field lists which services the interface provides to the network. Examples include
DHCP relay, DHCP server, DDNS, RIP, and OSPF. This field displays n/a if the interface
does not provide any services to the network.
Action Use this field to get or to update the IP address for the interface. Click Renew to send a
new DHCP request to a DHCP server. Click Connect to try to connect a PPPoE/PPTP
interface. If the interface cannot use one of these ways to get or to update its IP address,
this field displays n/a.
