Default Gateway:
This is the IP address of the gateway for which packets that are outside the bounds of the
management subnet will be directed. A default gateway address which is on the same subnet as
depicted by the “IPv4 address” and “Subnet mask” must be specified even if the gateway does
not exist.
Speed:
This presents a pull-down selector of speed/duplex combinations that will be set for this interface. The
default value is to automatically negotiate the speed and duplex.
Max Transmit Unit (MTU):
Specifies the max transmit unit. The default value is 1500. The range is 576 to 9000.
4.2.2 Auxiliary Interface
Automatically obtain IPv4 address:
If set, then the FX appliance will use DHCP to get an IP address, subnet mask, default gateway.
IPv4 address:
This is the IP address of the auxiliary interface. The factory default is 169.254.55.55.
Subnet mask:
This specifies the network that the auxiliary interface is on. The default value is 255.255.0.0.
Speed:
This presents a pull-down selector of speed/duplex combinations that will be set for this interface. The
default value is to automatically negotiate the speed and duplex.
Max Transmit Unit (MTU):
Specifies the max transmit unit. The default value is 1500. The range is 576 to 9000.
4.2.3 Management Static Routes
Routes:
Enter into the text area static routes which are used by the management interface. Each static
route must be entered on a separate line and must have exactly the following format:
Subnet “SubnetMask” “Gateway”
For example, to define a static route such that subnet 172.88.0.0/16 should be routed by
gateway 172.27.101.99 you would enter the following:
172.88.0.0 255.255.0.0 172.27.101.99
