The following briefly explains each Chassis Configuration screen field:

MAC Address (Read-Only)

Displays the base physical address of the chassis.

IP Address (Modifiable)

This field allows the IP address to be set for the 6C105 chassis. If an IP address is assigned to the 6C105 chassis all the interface modules installed in the chassis can be managed via this IP address, eliminating the need to assign an IP address to each interface module. To set the IP address, refer to Section 5.7.1.
