IP Address
This is the transceiver's current IP Address.
Connected IP Address
The Processor Unit holds an Ethernet adapter that is used to communicate with the
transceiver(s). This is the IP address of that Ethernet adapter.
Ethernet Address
This is the Ethernet address (also known as the "media access control" address
(MAC)) of the transceiver. This address is fixed, and it can not be changed.
Tip
Do not confuse "Ethernet address" (or MAC address) with "IP address".
A MAC address is a unique identifier assigned to network interfaces for
communication on the physical network segment. MAC addresses are
used as a network address for most IEEE 802 network technologies,
including Ethernet.
An Internet Protocol address (also known as an IP address) is a
numerical label assigned to each device (e.g., computer, printer)
participating in a computer network that uses the Internet Protocol for
communication. An IP address serves two principal functions: host or
network interface identification and location addressing. Its role has been
characterized as follows: "A name indicates what we seek. An address
indicates where it is. A route indicates how to get there."
