DESCRIPTION
Interface
Status
If an Ethernet interface does not have any physical ports associated with
it, its entry is displayed in light gray text.
Name
This field displays the name of each interface. If there is a Expand icon
(plus-sign) next to the name, click this to look at the status of virtual
interfaces on top of this interface.
Port
This field displays the physical port number.
Status
This field displays the current status of each interface. The possible
values depend on what type of interface it is.
For Ethernet interfaces:
Inactive - The Ethernet interface is disabled.
Down - The Ethernet interface is enabled but not connected.
Speed / Duplex - The Ethernet interface is enabled and connected.
This field displays the port speed and duplex setting (Full or Half).
HA Status
This field displays the status of the interface in the virtual router.
Active - This interface is the master interface in the virtual router.
Stand-By - This interface is a backup interface in the virtual router.

For example, this might happen if the interface is down.
n/a - Device HA is not active on the interface.

IP Addr/
Netmask
This field displays the current IP address and subnet mask assigned to
the interface. If the IP address and subnet mask are 0.0.0.0, the
interface is disabled or did not receive an IP address and subnet mask
via DHCP.
If this interface is a member of an active virtual router, this field displays
the IP address it is currently using. This is either the static IP address of
the interface (if it is the master) or the management IP address (if it is a
backup).

field displays n/a if the interface does not provide any services to the
network.

try to connect the interface. If the interface cannot use one of these
ways to get or to update its IP address, this field displays n/a.
