The third Ethernet port on the SBC 1000 is available only if running SBC 1000 v2 hardware. For hardware details, see Sonus Ribbon SBC 1000 Hardware Specifications.

Specifies how the IP address is assigned for that interface. Select from the drop down box. Available options: Static (User configured IPv4 address, netmask and system network configuration) or DHCP (Automatically acquired IPv4 address, netmask, and other system network configuration).

Note: DHCP applies to IPv4 addresses only; IPv6 addresses must be statically configured.

If you are configuring the IP Assign method from DHCP to Static, you should add a new default static route. We recommend this be done through the Modify Ethernet IP task (this allows you to set the IP address and the default route in one step). See Modifying the Sonus SBC 1000 IP Address and Modifying the Sonus SBC 2000 IP Address.

WARNING: If you set the IP Assign method to DHCP, the DNS server(s), NTP server(s), domain name and the default IP Route will be overwritten and configured dynamically.
