Managing application interfaces

To manage application interfaces with the local management interface, use the Application Interfaces management page.

1. From the top menu, select Manage System Settings > Network Settings > Application Interfaces. All current application interfaces are displayed in tabs. Each tab contains the current addresses and settings for a particular interface.
2. Select the tab of the interface that you want to work with. You can then add, edit, or delete an address on the corresponding interface tab.
   • Add an address
     1. Click New.
     2. In the Add Address page, provide details of the address to add.
        • Select the Enabled check box if you want this address to be enabled after creation.
        • Select IPv4 or IPv6 to indicate the type of address to add.
          • If IPv4 is selected:
            1. Under IPv4 Settings, select either Static or Auto to indicate whether the IPv4 address is static or DHCP-assigned.
               Note: Only one address per interface can be set to auto. If an existing address is already set to auto, then the Auto check box is disabled.
            2. Optional: If Static is selected in the previous step, you must enter the IPv4 address and subnet mask. If Auto is selected in the previous step, you can ignore the Address and Subnet Mask field.
          • If IPv6 is selected, enter the IPv6 Address and Prefix.
        • Click Save.
