Configuring Additional NIC Cards
The Configuration Utility script requires that the CAM and CAS machines come with eth0 (NIC1) and
eth1 (NIC2) interfaces by default and prompts you to configure these during initial installation. If your
system has additional network interface cards (e.g. NIC3, NIC4), you can use the following
instructions to configure the additional interfaces (e.g. eth2, eth3) on those cards. Typically, eth2 needs
to be configured when setting up CAS systems for High Availability. For HA, once the eth2 (NIC3)
interface is configured with the proper addressing, it can then be configured as the dedicated UDP
heartbeat interface for the HA-CAS.
Note
For Cisco NAC Appliance hardware platforms, the following instructions assume that the
NIC is plugged in and “working” (i.e., recognized by BIOS and by Linux).
service perfigo restart
Shuts down Cisco NAC Appliance services and starts them up again
on the CAM or CAS. This is used when services are already running
and you want to restart the appliance.
Note
Do not use
service perfigo restart
to test high availability
(failover). Instead, use the
shutdown
or
reboot
Linux
commands, or the
service perfigo stop
and
service perfigo
start
CLI commands to test failover.
service perfigo reboot
Shuts down and reboots the CAM or CAS. Alternatively, you can use
the Linux
reboot
command.
service perfigo time
Allows you to modify time zone settings. You can also view current
time settings with the Linux
clock
command.
