the switch's network interface do not affect the configuration of the front panel ports through
which traffic is switched or routed. The network interface is always considered to be up,
whether any member ports are up; therefore, the show network command will always show
“Interface Status” as “Up”.

Term Definition
The network interface status; it is always considered to be “up”.
The IP address of the interface. The factory default value is 0.0.0.0.
The IP subnet mask for this interface. The factory default value is 0.0.0.0.
The default gateway for this IP interface. The factory default value is 0.0.0.0.
Whether enabled or disabled.
The IPv6 address and length.
The IPv6 default router address.
The burned in MAC address used for in-band connectivity.
If desired, a locally administered MAC address can be configured for in-band
connectivity
. To take effect, 'MAC Address Type' must be set to 'Locally Administered'.
Enter the address as twelve hexadecimal digits (6 bytes) with a colon between each
byte. Bit 1 of byte 0 must be set to a 1 and bit 0 to a 0, i.e. byte 0 should have the
following mask 'xxxx xx10'. The MAC address used by this bridge when it must be
referred to in a unique fashion. It is recommended that this be the numerically smallest
MAC address of all ports that belong to this bridge. However it is only required to be
unique. When concatenated with dot1dStpPriority a unique BridgeIdentifier is formed
which is used in the Spanning Tree Protocol.
The MAC address which should be used for in-band connectivity. The choices are the
burned in or the Locally
Administered address. The factory default is to use the burned in
MAC address.
