The Ethernet screen is used for any wired IP connections that are made through either one of the controller's Ethernet
Switch Pri(mary) connector or Ethernet Switch Sec(ondary) connector. See
The Wired IP parameters can be auto-configured when the connected network has a working DHCP server. The alterna-
tive is to manually configure the controller's IP parameters.
