IP Addresses

When the controller is set up, generally using the setup script, one controller IP address is assigned to the first Ethernet interface. An additional Ethernet interface can be configured to act as a redundant interface, or as a second active interface. When two Ethernet interfaces are configured, it is referred to as a Dual Ethernet configuration.
