Configuring the Ethernet Interface

The Application Server is shipped with the eth0 port turned on, in a default configuration that permits an
initial connection. The default IP address setting for the Application Server is 10.0.3.6, with subnet mask
255.255.0.0. This section describes how to reconfigure eth0 to meet your local network requirements.

Before beginning this procedure, make sure you have navigated to the Network Configuration page of
Webmin (see “Navigating to the Network Configuration Page” on page 24).

To configure the Ethernet interface:

1. On the Network Configuration page, click Network Interfaces.

The Network Interfaces page appears. This page shows all Ethernet interfaces currently active, and lists
those that will be activated any time the system starts:

2. Click eth0 in the Name column.

The Edit Bootup Interface page appears:

Note: Do not click Apply Configuration on the Network Configuration page.

Note: You must use eth0 as your main network interface. Client applications (e.g. iC Navigator,
iC Web, etc.) must be started via the Application Server’s eth0 IP address. The other Ethernet port
(eth1) is also configurable, but is intended for specialized use, such as connecting Miranda
Densité frames and some third-party devices. As of iControl version 3.31, new Application Servers
have the eth1 network interface disabled by default.
