8.2.1 Edit Ethernet

This screen lets you configure IP address assignment and interface parameters. To access this
screen, select an interface and click its Edit icon in the Ethernet screen.
Note: If you create IP address objects based on an interface's IP address, subnet, or
gateway, the NXC automatically updates every rule or setting that uses the object
whenever the interface's IP address settings change. For example, if you change
LAN's IP address, the NXC automatically updates the corresponding interface-
based, LAN subnet address object.

DESCRIPTION
Use the Configuration section for IPv4 network settings. Use the IPv6 Configuration
section for IPv6 network settings if you connect your NXC to an IPv6 network. Both
sections have similar fields as described below.
Double-click an entry or select it and click Edit to open a screen where you can modify
the entry's settings.
To turn on an interface, select it and click Activate.
To turn off an interface, select it and click Inactivate.
Select an entry and click Object Reference to open a screen that shows which settings
use the entry.
This field is a sequential value, and it is not associated with any interface.
This icon is lit when the entry is active and dimmed when the entry is inactive.
This field displays the name of the interface.
This field displays the current IP address of the interface. If the IP address is 0.0.0.0 (in
the IPv4 network) or :: (in the IPv6 network), the interface does not have an IP address
yet.
In the IPv4 network, this screen also shows whether the IP address is a static IP
address (STATIC) or dynamically assigned (DHCP).
In the IPv6 network, this screen also shows whether the IP address is a static IP
address (STATIC), link-local IP address (LINK LOCAL), dynamically assigned (DHCP),
or an IPv6 StateLess Address AutoConfiguration IP address (SLAAC). See
on page 440 for more information about IPv6.
This field displays the interface's subnet mask in dot decimal notation.
This field indicates the interface's PVID.
Click Apply to save your changes back to the NXC.
Click Reset to return the screen to its last-saved settings.
