If only Current settings are displayed (the Planned tab is not displayed), it means

•
If both a Current tab and a Planned tab are displayed, it means the planned
settings you configured on the placeholder device are not identical to those on
the actual device. If this is the case, do not apply planned settings. Doing so
overwrites IP settings on the actual device, which stops network communication.
Instead, select the
Planned

NOTE: Do not click OK if planned settings (red text) are displayed.
