The following controls and fields are displayed in the Edit Network Interface window:

Field

Description

 

 

Enable Interface

Select to enable this network interface.

Configure automatically via DHCP Configure the network interface to use a DHCP server on the network to obtain its IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address.

Configure using these settings

Manually specify the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address for

 

the network interface.

IP address

The IP address manually assigned to the network interface.

Subnet mask

The manually-assigned subnet mask to be used by the network

 

interface.

Gateway

The manually-assigned IP address of the gateway used by the network

 

interface.

Hostname

The host name assigned to the appliance. If you change the hostname

 

value and are using a DHCP server for IP configuration, the appliance

 

uses the new hostname until the next time it renews its IP address

 

license and requests that the DHCP server use the hostname you

 

entered as the appliance hostname.

NAT proxy

The name or IP address used by a network address translation (NAT)

 

Proxy server in your network to let users connect to the appliance from

 

outside the firewall. This address is included in e-mail alert

 

notifications generated by the appliance instead of the IP address used

 

to identify the appliance within the firewall. Recipients outside the

 

firewall can click on the link in the e-mail and connect to the appliance.

 

NOTE: A NAT Proxy Name is needed only if your appliances are

 

behind a NAT Proxy firewall. If you are not using a NAT Proxy, leave

 

this field blank.

Speed and duplex

Force the network interface to use specific speed and duplex settings, or

 

configure the interface to auto-negotiate these settings.

MTU

The Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU), the largest physical packet

 

size, measured in bytes, that a network can transmit. Messages larger

 

than the MTU are divided into smaller packets before being sent. Every

 

network has a different MTU set by the network administrator. Ideally,

 

the MTU should be the same as the smallest MTU of all the networks

 

between your machine and the final destination of a message. Messages

 

larger than one of the intervening MTUs are broken up or fragmented,

 

which slows transmission speeds.
