2.3.1 Section [ExternalInterface]
Description
In this section, the parameters and settings for the external Ethernet interface are defined. For
an NCU7x0, this is X130 (Eth1). If the external interface is in DHCP mode, i.e. the value of
ExternalIP is empty or not defined, then all parameters listed here, with the exception of
"DHCPClientID", are accepted by the DHCP server as long as the server provides a value for
the parameter.
DisableCompanyNet
If this variable is set to 1, the X130 interface to the company network is not initialized and is
thus not available.
Value:
Default:
ExternalIP
If ExternalIP is not empty, the fixed IP address specified there is used in the company network
interface. The ExternalNetMask then also needs to be set, as well as the gateway, name
servers, host name, and domain if required.
If ExternalIP is not set or is empty, a DHCP client is started on the interface.
Value:
Default:
ExternalNetMask
ExternalNetMask must be set together with ExternalIP, in order to define the size of the network.
Value:
Default:
Gateway
If the value of gateway is not empty, the host specified there is used as the default gateway,
which means that all IP packets that cannot be directly assigned are sent there for routing.
If no gateway is specified, only the networks that are directly connected are accessible.
Value:
Default:
