Administering the Local IP for a single NIC configuration

About this task

Administering a Local IP refers to choosing the network interfaces that the AE Server uses for connectivity. For a single NIC configuration, it means that you will use one network interface for connectivity to Communication Manager and your clients. For more information, see Single NIC configurations.

noteNote

If you are using CVLAN in combination with other services, see Administering network interfaces with CVLAN - using the Any network setting.

noteNote

The ethN:IP address setting refers to a specific network interface on the server. If your AE Server uses four network interfaces, it can refer to eth0, eth2, or eth3 The Any setting uses the wild card IP address (0.0.0.0 if you are using IPv4 or :: if you are using IPv6), which means that all services on the AE Server will listen on all interfaces.

Procedure
