Adding Communication Interfaces
To add a communication interface, proceed as follows:
1. In the Communications interfaces view, click New. The naming
for logical interfaces is fixed so that each new interface will get a
name in the format netifX, where X is an automatically increasing
interface index.
2. Select the physical communication device used by the interface.
3. Set the idle time for the device as needed by entering the value in
the Idle time field. Idle time defines the time, in milliseconds, for
which the interface is kept open when it is not being used. For
example, if opening the interface is a time consuming or costly
operation, it is advisable to keep it open for some time, so that all
transmitted information can pass during one session.
