Single NIC configurations

In a single NIC configuration, you use one network interface. That is, the AE Server uses one NIC for client, switch and media connectivity.

In a single NIC configuration, the AE Server, Communication Manager, and the client application computer must reside on a private LAN, a virtual LAN (VLAN), or a WAN. In terms of setting up the AE Service IP (Local IP), this means you are using one NIC for client, switch, and media connectivity.

In a single NIC configuration, you must configure the IP interface for the AE Server server to be publicly accessible for the registration of IP endpoints. Always use eth0 for a single NIC configuration (eth1 is reserved for Avaya service technicians).

AE Services recommends a single NIC configuration for connectivity to most S8300, S8400, and S8500c Communication Manager media servers.

noteNote

The S8300 media server does not use a CLAN as a network interface, it uses a processor ethernet (procr) instead.
