Initial Setup

Installing an NVG in a New Cluster

When you are installing a VPN Gateway as the first (or only) member
in a new cluster, you can either create a one-armed or a two-armed
configuration.

Setting Up a One-Armed Configuration

In a one-armed configuration, only one interface is configured. It is used
as both the public (traffic) and the private (management) interface. See
figure on

“Two-Armed Configuration” (page 39)

.

2

Specify the port you want to use for network connectivity.

Enter port number for the management interface [1-4]: 1

This port will be assigned to Interface 1. As you are currently
configuring a one-armed setup, this interface will be used for
both private traffic (for example, SSL VPN management and
connections to intranet resources) and public traffic (for example,
client connections from the Internet).

3

Specify the current host IP address of the VPN Gateway.

Enter IP address for this machine (on management

interface):

This IP address must be unique on your network and be within
the same network address range as the Management IP
address. The host IP address will be assigned to Interface 1.
