DESCRIPTION
This field displays the physical port number.
This field displays the current status of each interface. The possible
values depend on what type of interface it is.
For Ethernet interfaces:
Inactive - The Ethernet interface is disabled.
Down - The Ethernet interface does not have any physical ports
associated with it or the Ethernet interface is enabled but not connected.
Speed / Duplex - The Ethernet interface is enabled and connected.
This field displays the port speed and duplex setting (Full or Half).
For cellular (3G) interfaces, see
that can appear.
For virtual interfaces, this field always displays Up. If the virtual
interface is disabled, it does not appear in the list.
For VLAN and bridge interfaces, this field always displays Up. If the
VLAN or bridge interface is disabled, it does not appear in the list.
For PPP interfaces:
Connected - The PPP interface is connected.
Disconnected - The PPP interface is not connected.
If the PPP interface is disabled, it does not appear in the list.
This field displays the zone to which the interface is assigned.
This field displays the current IP address and subnet mask assigned to
the interface. If the IP address and subnet mask are 0.0.0.0, the
interface is disabled or did not receive an IP address and subnet mask
via DHCP.
If this interface is a member of an active virtual router, this field displays
the IP address it is currently using. This is either the static IP address of
the interface (if it is the master) or the management IP address (if it is a
backup).
This field displays how the interface gets its IP address.
Static - This interface has a static IP address.
DHCP Client - This interface gets its IP address from a DHCP server.
This field lists which services the interface provides to the network.
Examples include DHCP relay, DHCP server, DDNS, RIP, and OSPF.
This field displays n/a if the interface does not provide any services to
the network.
Use this field to get or to update the IP address for the interface. Click
Renew to send a new DHCP request to a DHCP server. Click Connect to
try to connect a PPPoE/PPTP interface. If the interface cannot use one of
these ways to get or to update its IP address, this field displays n/a.
This table provides packet statistics for each interface.
