You can use the SIS REM module to view, enable and disable, create, edit, and remove network interfaces.

Note
What are network interfaces?

A network interface definition describes the properties of a network connection point. It includes:

  • a name, used as a unique identifier for the network interface

  • a type, either IN or SIP

  • zero or more configuration properties

  • the current state of the network interface, either ENABLED or DISABLED.

For details, see Managing Network Interfaces in the SIS Administration Guide.

Note

  • Changes to SIS network interface components do not take effect immediately. The SIS must explicitly reload its components to apply any changes.

  • Network interfaces do not support active reconfiguration. On reload, if the SIS instance is active, an alarm will be raised to indicate that it must be deactivated and reactivated before the changes will take effect.
