PUBLIC Interface

The NetVanta 2000 Series provides a standard 10/100BaseT Ethernet interface for connecting to the

wide area network (WAN). Connect the public interface to a hub connected to the router interfacing

with the non-secure Internet or the modem (cable or DSL) used for Internet access. A dynamic host

configuration protocol (DHCP) client is enabled on the public interface by default. References to the

public interface include Internet, WAN, and eth 0/1.

PRIVATE (NetVanta 2050/2054/2100)/PRIVATE 1 (NetVanta 2300 and Netvanta 2400) Interface

The NetVanta 2000 Series provides a standard 10/100BaseT Ethernet interface for connection to the

local corporate network. (The 2054 provides an integral four-port Ethernet switch.) Connect the

private interface to a hub located on your local corporate network. A DHCP server is enabled on the

private interface by default.

References to the private interface include LAN, corporate, and eth 0/2. (The four ports on the 2054

are referenced as eth 0/2, eth 0/3, eth 0/4, and eth 0/5.) Table A-1 in Appendix A shows the

10/100BaseT pinout.

PRIVATE 2 and PRIVATE 3 Interface (NetVanta 2300 and NetVanta 2400)

The NetVanta 2300 and NetVanta 2400 have two additional 10/100BaseT Ethernet interfaces to be

configured per user preference.
