External Network: Controls the External Ethernet network on the Multi-Stack Controller
▪
Bridge: Controls the Internal Ethernet network on the Multi-Stack Controller
Each card shows the following information:
▪

▪

▪

up before continuing with system startup
▪
Route Metric: The priority of this interface in the internal routing table. Lower values are higher
priority. It is not recommended to change this setting unless advised by Nuvation Energy
▪
MAC Address: The MAC address of the Multi-Stack Controller on the network. This address is not
modifiable
▪
Arrow in the header: A green up-arrow indicates the network interface has a carrier. A red down-
