The interfaces section displays all physical and virtual interfaces available in the system and allows you to change their settings or add new VLAN interfaces. This section contains all interfaces of each node in the cluster. Note that settings of interfaces are node-specific, i.e. they are not global.
Click Edit to change the network interface parameters:
-
Enable or disable the interface
-
Provide the interface type: Layer 3 or Mirror. An interface working in the Layer 3 mode can be assigned an IP address and used in various rules, such as firewall rules or content filtering rules. An interface working in the Mirror mode can obtain and analyze the traffic from SPAN ports of network devices.
-
Assign the interface to a zone
-
Assign Netflow profile to send statistics to Netflow collector
-
Change the physical parameters of the interface - MAC address and MTU size
-
Select the allocation method for IP addresses - static IP address or dynamic IP address obtained by DHCP
-
Configure a DHCP relay on the selected interface. To do this, enable the DHCP relay, specify the IP address of the interface for which you want to add a relay in the UserGate address field and then specify one or more DHCP servers to which you want to forward DHCP queries from clients
Click Add VLAN to add a new virtual adapter and then configure it.
