About IP configuration of network interfaces on
devices

You can perform IP configuration of network interfaces when working with a
placeholder device prior to discovery. When you add a device and choose a particular
model, the model defines the number, type and usage characteristics of network
interfaces to expect on such a device.

You can view and edit each network interface and set up IP configuration selecting an
appropriate IP from the network to which each interface connects. The process for
editing IP configuration varies, depending on the device's phase.
