Description

An integer in the range 1 to 252 that uniquely identifies the

 

 

interface on the Nortel SNAS 4050.

 

 

This field cannot be changed after the interface is added.

 

 

 

Ip Address

 

Sets the network address for the interface. (For Interface 1,

 

 

the network address is the RIP.)

 

 

 

Gateway

 

Sets the default gateway address for the interface. The

 

 

default gateway is the IP address of the interface on the

 

 

core router that will be used for management traffic (such

 

 

as requests to private authentication servers and DNS

 

 

servers).

 

 

The default gateway will be used only for Nortel

 

 

SNAS 4050 domains that point to this interface. If no

 

 

domain points to this interface, the specified gateway will

 

 

be ignored.

 

 

 

Netmask

 

Sets the subnet mask for the interface.

 

 

 

VlanId

 

Specifies the VLAN tag if packets received by the interface

 

 

are tagged with a specific VLAN tag ID.
