The Network screen enables the configuration of the network settings of the Zixi Broadcaster. The screen includes the option to configuration multiple NICs, VLANs, and multiple DNS Servers.

Field	Description
Network Settings
eth0	Click to configure the specified NIC. Displays the following parameters: Speed – the network card speed Duplex – whether the network card is full-duplex or half-duplex MTU - the size of the largest protocol data unit (PDU) that can be communicated in a single network layer transaction. PCI – the PCI slot number. Driver – the driver that is installed. Bonding – bonding allows you to send packets over multiple networks. Since one network may charge more than the other, you can set one network to primary and the other to backup, this way all the traffic will be sent over the cheaper primary network and then fall back to the backup (if primary is too congested). Primary – sets this NIC as a primary network Backup – sets this NIC as a backup network Don’t use – disables this NIC Routes – specifies the configured network routing for the NIC Statistics – click to display network statistics for this NIC Administration IP – indicates that the NIC is allocated for administration. At least one NIC needs to be used for admin. Enable/Disable DPDK – in case of multiple NICs it is possible to enable High Performance Networking (DPDK). Click to enable/disable DPDK
