3.1.3. Ethernet Addresses
Ethernet Address objects are used to define symbolic names for Ethernet addresses (also known as
MAC addresses). This is useful, for instance, when populating the ARP table with static ARP
entries, or for other parts of the configuration where symbolic names are preferred over numerical
Ethernet addresses.
When specifying an Ethernet address the format aa-bb-cc-dd-ee-ff should be used. Ethernet
addresses are also displayed using this format.

The following example adds an Ethernet Address object named wwwsrv1_mac with a numerical MAC address of
08-a3-67-bc-2e-f2:
CLI
gw-world:/> add Address EthernetAddress wwwsrv1_mac Address=08-a3-67-bc-2e-f2
Web Interface
