ifconfig and output

need some help interpreting: i'm running ltm 8900, v10.2.4 ifconfig -a displays eth 0, eth 0.1 and eth0:mgmt

 

trying to understand how all three were created and where in the GUI is eth0 configured.

 

I'm thinking, since the eth0:mgmt in ifconfig displays the IP that is configured within system/configuration, that that's where it is config'd in the GUI. but, why are the other 2 (eth0 and eth0.1) listed? same mac also...

  • The management interface is not visible from the GUI interface list. You can configure the management interface IP address/subnet/default gateway under System -> Platform.
