Network Data
Use this link to view information on the physical network interface controllers (NIC) and the team interface.
Network Interface Controller <n> Data (Repeated for Each Network Interface Present in the System)
IP Address | A number that provides the address of a system or
device attached to a Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol
(TCP/IP) network. Every system and device, such as a network-attached
storage device, must have a unique IP address. The supported protocols
are:
NOTE: You can
view only one set of IP address for the NIC in the Summary page. To view the other sets of IP addresses, navigate to the individual
physical interface link under . |
---|---|
Subnet Mask | Thirty-two-bit address mask used in IP to indicate
the bits of an IP address that are being used for the subnet address. NOTE: The subnet mask is
not displayed if you have entered IPv6 address. |
Default Gateway | The default gateway provides the address of the router
for the network. For example, if you define a subnet 192.168.1.0 and the IP address for the router interface on that subnet is 192.168.1.254, then all the systems (other than the router) in that subnet would have a default gateway set for 192.168.1.254. |
MAC Address | On a network, the MAC (Media Access Control) address is the computer's unique hardware number. When you connect to the Internet from the system, a table correlates the IP address to the computer's physical (MAC) address on the network. |
Team Interface
IP Address | A number that provides the address of a team interface.
Every team interface must have a unique IP address. The supported
protocols are:
NOTE: You can
view only one set of IP address for the team interface in the Summary page. To view the other sets of IP addresses,
navigate to the individual team interface link under . |
---|---|
Subnet Mask | Thirty-two-bit address mask used in IP to indicate
the bits of an IP address that are being used for the subnet address. NOTE: The subnet mask is
not displayed if you have entered IPv6 address. |
Default Gateway | The default gateway provides the address of the router
for the network. For example, if you define a subnet 192.168.1.0 and the IP address for the router interface on that subnet is 192.168.1.254, then all the systems (other than the router) in that subnet would have a default gateway set for 192.168.1.254. |
