Maintenance Manual

IPv4 configuration
IP
configuration
Specifies whether the port should be configured manually
or automatically. If set to Automatic via DHCP the MCU
obtains its own IP address for this port automatically via
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol). If set to
Manual the MCU will use the values that you specify in the
Manual configuration fields below.
It is not possible to disable a port if it
is being used to access the web user
interface, however, it can be
disabled via the serial connection. To
disable a port that is currently being
used to access the web interface via
this field, change to a different port
for web interface access.
Manual configuration
IP address The dot-separated IPv4 address for this port, for example
192.168.4.45
You only need to specify this option if
you have chosen Manual IP
configuration, as described above.
If IP configuration is set to Automatic
by DHCP this setting will be ignored.
Subnet mask The subnet mask required for the IP address you want to
use, for example 255.255.255.0
Default
gateway
The IP address of the default gateway on this subnet, for
example 192.168.4.1
IPv6 configuration
IP
configuration
Specifies whether the port should be configured manually
or automatically, or disabled. If set to Automatic via
SLAAC/DHCPv6 the MCU obtains its own IP address for this
port automatically. The protocol used will be SLAAC,
Stateful DHCPv6, or Stateless DHCPv6 as indicated by the
ICMPv6 Router Advertisement (RA) messages. If set to
Manual the MCU will use the values that you specify in the
Manual configuration fields below.
Manual configuration
IPv6 address The (hexadecimal) colon-separated IPv6 address for this
port, for example [2001:db8:168:4::45].
See Automatic IPv6 address preferences for more
information about IPv6 addresses that are assigned
automatically.
You only need to specify this option if
you have chosen Manual IP
configuration, as described above.
If IP configuration is set to Automatic
via SLAAC/DHCPv6 this setting is
ignored.
When you enter an IPv6 address
anywhere in the user interface, the
address must be enclosed in square
brackets [ ].
Prefix length The (decimal) prefix length value for the global IPv6 address
for this port. In the above IPv6 address example, the prefix
length is 64.
Default
gateway
Optionally, specifies the IPv6 address of the default
gateway on this subnet.
The address can be global or link-
local.
