Configuring Underlying Ethernet Devices

The Ethernet Devices table lets you configure up to 16 Ethernet Devices. An Ethernet
Device represents a Layer-2 bridging device and is assigned a VLAN ID and an Ethernet
Group (Ethernet port group). Multiple Ethernet Devices can be associated with the same
Ethernet Group. The Ethernet Device (VLAN) can be configured with a VLAN tagging
policy, which determines whether the Ethernet Device accepts tagged or untagged packets
received on the Ethernet port associated with the Ethernet Device.
Once configured, assign the Ethernet Device to an IP network interface in the IP Interfaces
table ('Underlying Device' field) and/or with a static route in the Static Routes table ('Device
Name' field). You can assign the same Ethernet Device to multiple IP network interfaces
and thereby, implement multi-homing (multiple addresses on the same interface/VLAN).
By default, the device provides a pre-configured Ethernet Device at Index 0 with the
following settings:

Name: "vlan 1"

VLAN ID: 1

Ethernet Group: GROUP 1

Tagging Policy: Untagged

MTU: 1500
The pre-configured Ethernet Device is associated with the default IP network interface (ie.,
OAMP) in the IP Interfaces table. The Untagged policy of the pre-configured Ethernet
Device enables you to connect to the device using the default OAMP interface.
You can view configured Ethernet Devices that have been successfully applied to the
device (saved to flash) in the Ethernet Device Status table. This page is accessed by
clicking the Ethernet Device Status Table button located at the bottom of the Ethernet
Devices table. The Ethernet Device Status table can also be accessed from the Navigation
tree (see ''Viewing Ethernet Device Status'' on page 909).
Note:
interface (in the IP Interfaces table). You can only delete it once you have
disassociated it from the IP network interface.
The following procedure describes how to configure Ethernet Devices through the Web
interface. You can also configure it through ini file (DeviceTable) or CLI (configure network
> network-dev).

To configure an Ethernet Device:
1. Open the Ethernet Devices table (Setup menu > IP Network tab > Core Entities
folder > Ethernet Devices).
2. Click New; the following dialog box appears:
Version 7.2
Assigns the second port to the Ethernet Group. To assign no port, set
this field to None.
Note: Before you can re-assign a port to a different Ethernet Group,
you must first remove the port from its current Ethernet Group. To
remove the port, either set this field to None or to a different port.
You cannot delete an Ethernet Device that is associated with an IP network
