Explicitly provide the valid IPv6 unicast (except
linklocal) address of the DNS Server.
Make sure the configured DNS server could be
reachable (e.g. via PING6) for activating DNS service.
From any DHCPv4 interfaces
The first DNS server offered from a DHCPv4 lease to
a DHCPv4-enabled interface will be used.
From this DHCPv4 interface
Specify from which DHCPv4-enabled interface a
provided DNS server should be preferred.
From any DHCPv6 interfaces
The first DNS server offered from a DHCPv6 lease to a
DHCPv6-enabled interface will be used.
From this DHCPv6 interface
Specify from which DHCPv6-enabled interface a provided DNS
server should be preferred
DNS Proxy
When DNS proxy is enabled, system will relay DNS requests to the
currently configured DNS server, and reply as a DNS resolver to the
client devices on the network.
IP Interface Delete
Select this option to delete an existing IP interface.
VLAN
The VLAN associated with the IP interface. Only ports in this VLAN will
be able to access the IP interface. This field is only available for input
when creating a new interface.
DHCPv4 Enabled
Enable the DHCPv4 client by checking this box. If this option is enabled,
the system will configure the IPv4 address and mask of the interface
using the DHCPv4 protocol. The DHCPv4 client will announce the
configured System Name as hostname to provide DNS lookup.
Fallback
The number of seconds for trying to obtain a DHCP lease. After this
period expires, a configured IPv4 address will be used as IPv4 interface
address. A value of zero disables the fallback mechanism, such that
DHCP will keep retrying until a valid lease is obtained. Legal values are
0 to 4294967295 seconds.
Current
Lease
For DHCP interfaces with an active lease, this column show the current
interface address, as provided by the DHCP server.
IPv4 Address
The IPv4 address of the interface in dotted decimal notation.
If DHCP is enabled, this field configures the fallback address. The field
may be left blank if IPv4 operation on the interface is not desired - or no
DHCP fallback address is desired.
Mask Length
The IPv4 network mask, in number of bits (prefix length). Valid values
