If you entered a non-zero value for the VLAN IDs, you will see an additional screen:
Bond rtr/svr NI?
(“Bond router and server Network Interfaces”):
This option will allow you to use the “Internet/rtr” port and “Server/svr” port as a single
“bonded” interface, also known as Port Channel or Link Aggregation Group, allowing
substantially more data throughput than a single physical interface. Additional
information on Bond All Interfaces setup is in this next section.

Out-of-Path Related Configuration
Enter Server LAN WebMux IP Address
:
In Out-of-Path Mode, at minimum, you only need to connect the Server LAN interface. This
is the IP address of the WebMux Server LAN interface. This IP address must also be unique
for each WebMux. The purpose of this IP address is to allow the WebMux to check the
network and server health. Even for the backup WebMux, this address must be unique. It
is highly recommended that one should add this IP address to your servers /etc/hosts file,
along with the gateway IP address, to allow faster name resolution, especially on
Linux®/UNIX® systems. For additional information reference the section on How to Add a
Loopback Adapter to servers within this User Manual.
In an installation with a primary and secondary WebMux, one unique IP address is required
for each WebMux interface that connects to the Server LAN. Those two unique IP
addresses are in addition to the farm IP address that is floating between the primary and
secondary WebMux.
Enter Server LAN Network IP Address Mask:
This is the network mask of the Server LAN. For a Class A network, it may be 255.0.0.0.
For a Class C network, it may be 255.255.255.0.
Enter Server LAN VLAN ID (Optional):
✍
The VLAN ID is used for full 802.1q VLAN support
Enter Server LAN Gateway IP Address (Optional):
This is an optional configuration that is used only if you are going to do SSL termination.
Keep in mind that this is an IP address assigned to the Server LAN network interface. Be
sure to use a unique IP address or duplicate IPs on the network will occur. Enter 0.0.0.0 if
not needed.
