IP Address

The IP address configured on this interface.

Subnet Mask

The subnet mask configured on this interface.

MAC Address

This is the unique hardware MAC (Media Access Control) address for this interface, displayed in 6-byte
hexadecimal notation. You cannot change this address.

Default Gateway

The IP routing subsystem routes data packets first using static routes, then the default gateway. If you
do not specify a default gateway, the system drops packets it cannot otherwise route.

To configure a default gateway, click the appropriate highlighted link in the table or click in a
highlighted module on the back-panel image. See Configuration | System | IP Routing | Default
Gateways.
