Configuring Primary and Secondary Ethernet Ports
If failover is disabled, the administrative user can configure each Ethernet port
separately in the following ways:
• Enable or disable each Ethernet port
• Enable or disable DHCP
• If DHCP is disabled, configure each port for static IP addressing.
When failover is disabled on the “Network Interfaces” screen, clicking the
“Next” button brings up the first of two screens for configuring the primary
and secondary Ethernet ports. The screen for configuring the secondary
Ethernet port is identical to the screen for the primary Ethernet port except for
the screen’s heading.
The screen for configuring the primary Ethernet port is shown in the
following figure as it appears when the “Enable” checkbox is not checked.
