4. Under IP Address, choose the method for obtaining an IP address for the primary

interface:

‹

Click Obtain an IP address Automatically to have the HP EFS WAN
Accelerator automatically find the IP address for the primary interface. (A
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (PP) server must be available so that the
HP EFS WAN Accelerator can request the IP address from it.)

‹

Click Specify IP Address Manually to assign a specific HP EFS WAN
Accelerator as the primary interface:

‹

Type the IP address in the IP Address text box.

‹

Type the subnet mask in the Subnet Mask text box.

‹

Type the IP address for the primary gateway in the Primary Gateway IP
text box. The primary gateway must be in the same network as the primary
interface. You must set the primary gateway for in-path configurations.

5. Under Additional Interface Settings, select the speed in the Speed drop-down list

to set the speed for the primary interface. The default value is Auto.

IMPORTANT: The speed and duplex must match (LAN and WAN) in an in-path configuration.
If they do not match you might have a large number of errors on the interface when it is in bypass
mode, because the switch and router are not set with the same duplex settings.
