RuggedRouter™ User Guide

Parameters specific to one interface are configured here.

Each interface on the router is listed. Clicking on settings displays a menu of configuration options for that interface. Clicking on status displays the current status of the interface, including link state, IP address and traffic counts.

Clicking “Remove inactive interfaces” purges the list of any interfaces which are no longer configured on the router.

The Bandwidth field sets the bandwidth value to assume for the interface when automatically calculating a cost for using the link on this interface. By default all interfaces are treated as 10Mbit (10000 Kbps). OSPF by default uses an automatic cost of 10 for all links by calculating is as reference bandwidth (100Mbit) divided by the link bandwidth (10Mbit). If a manual cost is assigned to the interface in OSPF, this value is ignored. RIP does not use this parameter.

The Link Detect field controls core's link detect feature on the interface. When link detect is enabled, routes through the interface will only be advertised to other routers when the link is up. This option is usually desirable.

This menu shows the current configuration file for the Core interfaces.
