Use the Advanced Interface menu to configure LAN, PPP and ATM interfaces. Follow these
steps…
1. Select the Interface Name.
2. Set the IP and Subnet Mask by clicking Configure Interface. Some interfaces allow
the option of changing interface status.
Interfaces:
•
Interface mer0 usage is reserved. Its status is always Down.
•
Interface ADSL0 is the ADSL SNMP interface.
•
Interface lo0 is the loopback interface. When you perform an
OAM loopback, the status field displays UP.
•
Interfaces Atm0 to Atm 7 display the interfaces configured
for RFC1483 bridged mode or RFC 1483 routed mode.
•
Interfaces pppo to ppp7 display the interfaces configured for
PPPoE or PPPoA.
Parameters:
•
Dynamic IP address from DHCP: Selecting this option allows the DHCP Server to
assign the IP address.
•
Static IP address: Selects the IP address to be statically assigned.
•
Interface: The name of the selected interface.
•
IP address: The IP address of the selected interface.
•
Subnet Mask: The subnet mask of the selected interface.
•
MTU: Sets the maximum transmission unit of the interface. The MTU limits the size of
packets that transmit on an interface. Not all interfaces support the MTU parameter. Some
interfaces, like Ethernet, have range restrictions (80 - 1500).
•
Speed: Auto, 10 Mbps, or 100 Mbps.
•
State: Enable and Disable. When you set an interface to Disable, the system won’t
attempt to transmit messages through that interface. When you set an interface to Enable,
you can transmit messages through the interface.
