IP Address Conflict Detection

Use the IP Address Conflict Detection page to run the IP Address Conflict Detection tool, which detects IP
address conflicts for IPv4 addresses. When a conflict is detected, the switch updates the status on the page,
generates an SNMP trap, and logs a message noting the conflict.
To display the IP Address Conflict Detection page, click System > Utilities > IP Address Conflict in the
navigation menu.

Use the buttons to perform the following tasks:
• To run the tool and check for possible address conflicts, click Run Detection.
• To reset the last IP address conflict detection status information seen by the switch, click Clear History.
• Click Refresh to refresh the page with the most current data from the switch.
To retain the changes across the switch's next power cycle, click System > Configuration Storage > Save.
Network Connectivity
The network interface is the logical interface used for in-band connectivity with the switch via any of the
switch's front panel ports. The configuration parameters associated with the switch's network interface do
not affect the configuration of the front panel ports through which traffic is switched or routed.
The IPv4 Network Connectivity and IPv6 Network Connectivity pages allow you to change the IPv4 and IPv6
information using the EdgeSwitch UI. To access the pages, click System > Connectivity > IPv4 or IPv6 in the
navigation menu.
