IP Interface Configuration
Figure 9-2. The IP Interface ConÞguration Window
The list box at the top of the window displays the IP interfaces that have already
been conÞgured; the Þelds and buttons in the lower portion of the window allow
you to add new entries, and modify or delete existing ones.
Following is a description of the IP Interface parameters. The parameters you will
conÞgure for each interface depends on the IP Interface Type you select (see IP
Interface Type deÞnition below).
Interface Number
In this Þeld, enter an interface number 1 to 257. This is merely a sequential
number used to identify the interface. It is a good idea to conÞgure a LAN
interface as interface 0. This ensures that the default IP address used for
Unnumbered Interfaces (see below) will always be the same.
