Changing Parameter Settings. Regardless of which interface is used (CLI,
or web browser interface), the most recently configured version of a param-
eter setting overrides any earlier settings for that parameter. For example, if
you use the web interface to configure an IP address of “X” for the Ethernet
interface and later use the CLI to configure a different IP address of “Y”, then
“Y” replaces “X” as the IP address for the Ethernet interface.
