11: VIP Routes
The flow of data between the console and the device is bidirectional due to the nature of
TCP. However, the initiation of a session is possible only in one direction. For example, if
both Host1 and Dev1are Linux servers, an SSH client can log into the SSH server on
Dev1, but the SSH client on Dev1 cannot log into the SSH server on Host1.
Create a TCP VIP Route:
1. Click
Configuration > Configure Element
, select a DSC icon, and select the VIP
mapping tab.
2. Notice the Virtual IP License count in the upper left corner. See the chapter on
licensing to activate more licenses (page 29).
3. Click
Add Row
if you want to create another VIP.
4. Enter the Virtual IP Address and Netmask in dot-quad format, e.g. 255.255.255.0.
5. Proceed to the pull-down menu and select a target.
6. Click
Save
