Function “IP address”

Here you can set TCP/IP parameters for selected NIC.

You can activate or deactivate network interface by setting "Activate" checkbox. You can use static or dynamic(DHCP) network interface configuration.

If you want to dynamically get DNS address, select "get DNS".

When using static configuration of network interface, enter address IP, netmask, broadcast and gateway.

If you set new IP address, during activation, you will lose your connection to the server and you will have to log in again. In the URL entry line of your browser, please enter the new IP address.

If you do not get access, please try the console to set new IP address. In order to access servers in another subnet, you need to enter the address of a router as Gateway.

In case you use NTP server to maintain proper time & date, please make sure you have proper Gateway and DNS settings.

Function “IPSEC”

IPSEC provides strong authentication and encryption for the connections. It makes it nearly impossible to eavesdrop or forge the transmitted data.

Encrypted data transmission imposes considerable overhead and depending on the amount data transmitted can impact the performance significantly.

Function “Bonding”

Bonding allows for load-balancing or fail-over for the incoming and outgoing connections.

In order to take advantage of bonding more than one ethernet NIC need to be plugged into the box.

set bonding

Allows you to add new, remove or view settings of the existing bond group.

mode

Specifies one of the bonding policies:

•balance-rr

Transmissions are received and sent out sequentially on each bonded slave interface. This mode provides fault tolerance and load balancing.

•active-backup

Only one slave in the bond is active. Another bonded slave interface is only used if the active bonded slave interface fails. This mode provides fault tolerance.

•balance-xor
