Interfaces
You set up an auxiliary interface, which provides support if your network has a
dedicated management subnet, in the Host Settings - Interface: AUX page. For
example, if your network has an auxiliary interface that connects and passes packets
between the appliance and a different network, such as one purely for device
management.
IMPORTANT: The primary and auxiliary interfaces cannot share the same network subnet.
The auxiliary and in-path interfaces cannot share the same subnet.
Enabling this interface is optional.
VLAN VLAN Tag ID. If you have enabled VLAN tagging, type a numeric ID in the text box.
Type 0 to leave the interface untagged.
When you specify the VLAN Tag ID for the in-path interface, all packets originating from
the appliance are tagged with that identification number. This is the VLAN tag that the
appliance uses to communicate with other appliances in your network. The VLAN Tag ID
might be the same value or a different value than the VLAN tag used on the client. A zero
(0) value specifies non-tagged (or native) VLAN.
NOTE: When the appliance communicates with a client or a server it uses the same
VLAN tag as the client or the server. If the appliance cannot determine which VLAN the
client or server is in, it uses its own VLAN until it is able to determine that information.
NOTE: You must also define in-path rules to apply to your VLANs. For detailed
information, see
“Setting In-Path Rules” on page 25 .
Bandwidth Limit Limit Optimized Bandwidth to. To limit optimized bandwidth, click this box and
specify a number of Kbps to set the limit.
The bandwidth limit applies only to the outgoing WAN interface and outgoing packets, it
does not apply to passed-through traffic. To limit a particular link to a certain bandwidth,
you must set the limit on the client and the server appliance. The default value is 1500.
