Field | Value | Description |
---|---|---|
Protocol | None | Static | DHCP | DHCPv6 | PPPoE | Mobile; defaults
|
|
IPv4 address | ip4; default[for LAN]: 192.168.1.1 | The IPv4 address interface of this interface. An IP address identifies a device on a network and allows it to communicate with other devices. |
IPv4 netmask | netmask; default[for LAN]: 255.255.255.0 | The IPv4 netmask of this interface. A netmask is used to define how "large" a network is by specifying which part of the IP address denotes the network and which part denotes a device. |
IPv4 gateway | ip4; default: none | The IPv4 gateway address used by this interface. An interface's default gateway is the default address through which all outgoing traffic is directed. |
IPv4 broadcast | ip4; default: none | The IPv4 broadcast address used by this interface. IP broadcasts are used by BOOTP and DHCP clients to find and send requests to their respective servers. |
DNS servers | ip4; default: none | DNS server addresses that this interface will use. If left empty, DNS servers are assigned automatically. To see what DNS servers are currently used, you can check the contents of the /tmp/resolv.conf.auto file. |
