GigE Server Warning Example 1a: IP error with multiple NICs
The screenshot below shows an IP conflict error due to two (or more) NICs that are all set to LLA mode. In this
case both NICs are assigned the same IP subnet address preventing communication with any connected Genie.
• When multiple NICs are used, only one can be set to LLA mode. A second NIC connected to Genie must use
the persistent IP mode or must have a DHCP server on that subnet. The following illustration shows such a
setup.
