IP Configuration

This section contains the physical interface definitions used to configure the IP address, netmask, subnet, broadcast and routing associated to a physical interface.

Each active nafo group has 9 arguments as described below:
nafo grp - the name given to the failover group.
itf1 - the first physical interface assigned to that group.

For Linux this contains a bonding device (bond0) if bonding devices are active.
itf2 - The second physical interface assigned to that group.

For Linux this contains a bonding device (bond0) if bonding devices are active.
node 1 - The IP address assigned to the master node for this ipmp group.
node 2 - The IP address assigned to the slave node for this ipmp group.
netmask - The netmask being used for this interface.
subnet - The starting address of this subnet.
broadcast - The broadcast address for this interface.

In the following table you can see:
- The definition of the Administration network nafo0:
- The definition of the Signaling network. nafo1:
- The definition of the Billing network. nafo2:

- The definition of the Cross Installation network. Nafo3:

IP Configuration 1/4

SIS IP: The IP of the cluster SIS server.

 

Subnet Sharing:

Choose between Mgmt-Billing-Singnaling-Separated(numberOfInterfaces: 3) Mgmt-Billing-Shared(numberOfInterfaces:2) and Mgmt-Billing-Signaling-Shared (numberOfInterfaces: 1)

Share Cluster with Mgmt:

Select it when want to enable cluster to share the same network with admin

Management; Signaling; Billing; Cluster Installation for IPv4

Bond Interface: Indicate the name given to the failover bond interface.

Interface 1: Indicate the first physical interface assigned to that bond interface. Contains a bonding device (bond#) if bonding devices are active.

Interface 2: Indicate the second physical interface assigned to that bond interface. Contains a bonding device (bond#) if bonding devices are active.

Node 1: The IP address assigned to the master node for this ipmp bond interface.

Node 2: The IP address assigned to the slave node for this ipmp bond interface.

Default Router IPv4: The machine that will route packets not currently addressed by the configured interfaces. You must be able to route to that address.
Note: In node separation scenario, Default Router IPv4 for Node2 address field will also be displayed.

Subnet Node 1: The starting address of this sub-net

Default Gateway: The default gateway for this interface

MTU: The MTU for this interface(default:1500)

Lsm:  Link Status Manager. Responsible for all primary tunnels that are provisioned.

 

Note: Lsm of node 2 is available only on node separation scenarios.


SIP: Virtual IP address of SIP signalling manager on node 1.

Sipmtls: Virtual IP address of SIP signalling manager on node 1 for mutually authenticated TLS.

 


MGCP: Virtual IP address of SIP signalling manager on node 1 for MGCP/NCS.

 


CSTA: Virtual IP address used for Computer Supported Telecommunication Applications signalling manager on node 1.


Mctl:Remote Administration of node 1.

 


Mctl URL :URL for the Remote Administration of node 1.

 


Note: Node 2 IP address fields are also displayed.


Note2: SIP Node 2 IP, Sipmtls Node 2 IP, CSTA Node 2 IP, MGCP Node 2 IP are present in case of Simplex Deployment for redundancy purposes (failed-over IPs)

SIS IP: The IP of the cluster SIS server.

 


Subnet Sharing IPv6:

Choose between Mgmt-Billing-Singnaling-Separated(numberOfInterfaces: 3) Mgmt-Billing-Shared(numberOfInterfaces:2) and Mgmt-Billing-Signaling-Shared (numberOfInterfaces: 1) for IPv6

Management; Signaling; Billing; Cluster Installation for IPv6


Node 1: The IPv6 address assigned to the master node for this ipmp bond interface.

Node 2: The IPv6 address assigned to the slave node for this ipmp bond interface.

Default Router IPv6: The machine that will route packets not currently addressed by the configured interfaces. You must be able to route to that address.
Note: In node separation scenario, Default Router IPv6 for Node2 address field will also be displayed.

Subnet Node 1: The starting address of this sub-net

Default Gateway: The default gateway for this interface

Lsm:  Link Status Manager. Responsible for all primary tunnels that are provisioned.

 

Note: Lsm of node 2 is available only on node separation scenarios.


Sip: Virtual IPv6 address of SIP signalling manager on node 1.

Sipmtls: Virtual IPv6 address of SIP signalling manager on node 1 for mutually authenticated TLS.

 


MGCP : Virtual IPv6 address of SIP signalling manager on node 1 for MGCP/NCS.

 


CSTA: Virtual IPv6 address used for Computer Supported Telecommunication Applications signalling manager on node 1.


Mctl :IPv6 Remote Administration of node 1.
