IP Address
This specifies the network IP address of given Ethernet interface. This IP address is for 
system management use only.
Valid values: Any valid class A/B/C address
Net Mask
This specifies the network mask configured for the interface.
Valid values: 255.0.0.0 ~ 255.255.255.255
Is use DhCP
This indicates whether a DHCP client is to be triggered to obtain an IP address for this 
Ethernet interface.
Interface Type

Management vLAN ID
VLAN for management traffic on this interface. Nonzero value of this field is valid only if 
either ‘IP Address’ field is non-zero or ‘does use DHCP’ field is true. If no Management 
VLAN ID is specified (in the create operation) or its value is set to zero (either in create 
or modify operation) then the system shall use the value of ‘private VLAN ID’ associated 
with the bridge port created on this interface as the Management VLAN ID. 
In case the management VLAN (i.e. ‘Management VLAN ID’ or the associated ‘private 
VLAN ID’, if ‘Management VLAN ID’ is zero) does not exist on the system then IP based 
management on this management VLAN shall not happen on the interface till the 
corresponding VLAN is created with the Network side port as its member.
