The Original Network Information is read-only. The New Network Information shows the values that are used for the restore. If the configuration was not edited, the top panes and bottom panes show the same information.

Table: Network interface mapping actions describes the actions you can initiate from the dialog box.

Action

Description

Initialize

Opens a dialog box from which you can select a configuration to import. Only the hardware information from the configuration is imported, not the network identity. The interfaces from the imported configuration replace the interfaces in the New Network Information window.

Unmap All

Unmaps all mapped interfaces in the New Network Information window and changes all interfaces in the Original Network Information window to Unmapped.

The unmapping removes the name, IP addresses, network masks, gateways, and DHCP and bootable attributes. MAC addresses are not removed.

Map

Right-click an interface in the Original Network Information window and select Map from the shortcut menu. In the Map Interface dialog box, select an interface in which to map the IP address, netmask, and domain name from the source network card. The MAC address of the original interface is not mapped to the target interface.

Unmap

Right-click an interface in the New Network Information window and select Unmap from the shortcut menu.

The unmapping of an interface removes the name, IP addresses, network masks, and DHCP and bootable attributes. MAC addresses are not removed.

Change

Right-click an interface in the New Network Information window and select Change from the shortcut menu.
