# Network

This section describes the network-related settings available in the flexAI web interface.

<p class="callout info">The examples in this section use \*\*LAN 1 CTRL\*\*, as labeled on the AIXpressor. The same configuration options are available for the other network interfaces, depending on the physical configuration of the flexAI system.</p>
