Configuring the application IP interfaces
This section describes how to update the IP communication interfaces on a node.
About this task
Note: Customizing the network configuration on a node can also be done using
ProtecTIER Manager. If ProtecTIER Manager is already installed on the system, go
to “Customizing the network configuration of a node” on page 38.
ProtecTIER exposes virtual interfaces to the host, such as a media server with the
plug-in installed. In version 3.4.1, the physical Ethernet ports are assigned to one
virtual application interface. Currently, the physical ports are assigned to virtual
interface eth0 or eth1, depending on the server configuration. This assignment
option is used to group several physical interfaces into a single virtual interface,
and create a bond configuration of several physical interfaces. Each virtual
interface used must be configured with a corresponding IP address.
