Network Configuration
The network status information that displays depends on whether Network Fault Tolerance is enabled. When Network Fault Tolerance is enabled, Ethernet port 1 automatically takes over network communications if Ethernet port 0 fails. If Network Fault Tolerance is enabled, network status information displays for the network ports Ethernet 0, Ethernet 1, and Bond 0. If Network Fault Tolerance is not enabled, status information displays only for Ethernet 0.

- Port Number
- Type
- Translated Port
- Status
- Description
To access the IP Preferences window, follow this procedure.
Procedure
Step 1 From the Cisco Unified Communications Operating System Administration window, choose Show > IP Preferences.
The IP Preferences window displays. Records from an active (prior) query may also display in the window.
Step 2 To find all records in the database, ensure the dialog box is empty; go to Step 3.
To filter or search records
- From the first drop-down list box, select a search parameter.
- From the second drop-down list box, select a search pattern.
- Specify the appropriate search text, if applicable.
Note To add additional search criteria, click the + button. When you add criteria, the system searches for a record that matches all criteria that you specify. To remove criteria, click the – button to remove the last added criterion or click the Clear Filter button to remove all added search criteria.
Step 3 Click Find.
