  • IPv4 Mode: Select one of the following for your IPv4 network:
    • DHCP: If your network contains a DHCP server, select DHCP to automatically receive a dynamic IPv4 address for the host.
    • Static: If you want to assign a specific IPv4 address to your host, select Static to manually configure the IPv4 address, netmask or CIDR, and the default gateway for the host.
  • IPv4 address, IPv4 Netmask, IPv4 Gateway: Enter the IPv4 address, netmask, and gateway for the network to which the host connects.
  • Disable Path MTU Discovery: Select this check box if you want to disable path MTU discovery in your network path. This check box is deselected by default, which means path MTU discovery is enabled by default. Path MTU discovery is used to determine the MTU size to avoid IP fragmentation.
  • IPv4 MTU: Enter the maximum transmission unit, which is the size of the largest protocol data unit that can be communicated in a single network layer transaction. Valid values are from 576 to 9000. The default value is 1500.

    • Auto Select: Select this to allow the system to select the best way to obtain an IPv6 address for the host.
    • Static: If you want to assign a specific IPv6 address to your host, select Static to manually configure the IPv6 address, CIDR, and the default gateway for the host.
  • IPv6 address, CIDR, IPv6 Gateway: Optionally, you can enter the IPv6 address, CIDR, and gateway for the network to which the host connects.
  • IPv6 MTU: Enter the maximum transmission unit, which is the size of the largest protocol data unit that can be communicated in a single network layer transaction. Valid values are from 1280 to 9000. The default value is 1500.
