And to provide a little supporting information for Denis,  all the
servers in our datacenter have 2 Ethernet connections but in the OS we
have them teamed effectively making a single interface where an IP is
assigned.  So in ports I show eth0 and eth1 but in the IP I only assign
them to the TEAM name.

The matter is, on Ports the object has its "sockets" listed, even those,
which cannot transmit any data. And the "IPv4" tab refers to object's
internal names of IP interfaces, which may be related to real sockets in
an odd way. So it was left this way, when it was designed. May be,
someone will arrange this in a cleaner way one day.
