6.1 Configuring physical network interfaces
The hardware of a CMG-DCM, CMG-EAM or CMG-DAS has a single
physical network interface while CMG-NAMs may be equipped with
multiple physical network interfaces. Platinum firmware follows the
standard Linux convention of naming the first physical network
interface present on a system eth0 and subsequent interfaces eth1,
eth2, etc.
To configure a physical network interface from the web interface,
select “Networking” from the “Configuration” → “All options” menu
or select the “Interfaces” short-cut from the “Networking” menu. To
configure a physical network interface from the command line, start
gconfig and select “Networking” from the top level menu.
