Guidelines for configuring network interface N

Important: Network interface N configuration is only necessary when Network Agent is installed and running on the appliance and you want blocking to go through interface N.

IP address of interface N

Required.

Network Agent should be able to see the outbound and inbound traffic in your network. Network Agent ignores ports 80, 443, 8070, and 8080.

Subnet mask Required.
Default gateway

Required.

Primary DNS

Required.

IP address of the domain name system server.

Secondary DNS

Optional.

Serves as a backup in case the primary DNS server is unavailable.

Tertiary DNS

Optional.

Serves as a backup in case the primary and secondary DNS servers are unavailable.

CLI example:
(config)# set interface ipv4 --interface n 
          --ip 10.200.200.20 --mask 255.255.0.0
          --gateway 10.200.0.5

(config)# set interface dns --module network-agent
          --dns1 10.10.10.10 --dns2 10.10.10.11

Network Agent can instead be installed on a different server in the network.
