Allow or Discourage Administrative Traffic

By default, all network interfaces allow administrative traffic. However,

you can specify which networks you prefer to use for this traffic.

To allow or discourage administrative traffic on a network interface,

select that network interface on the Servers window, right-click, and then

select either “Allow Admin. Traffic” or “Discourage Admin. Traffic” as

appropriate. The setting is applied to all interfaces within the same

subnet on all servers of the cluster.

From the command line, use the following command to allow

administrative traffic on specific network interfaces:

mx netif admin <interface_ip> ...

Use the following command to discourage administrative traffic:

mx netif noadmin <interface_ip> ...

Enable or Disable a Network Interface for

Virtual Hosting

By default, all network interfaces are enabled for virtual hosting. To

enable or disable a network interface for virtual hosting, select that

interface on the Servers window, right-click, and then select either

“Enable Hosting” or “Disable Hosting” as appropriate.

From the command line, use the following command to disable virtual

hosting:

mx netif disable <interface_ip> ...

Use the following command to enable virtual hosting:

mx netif enable <interface_ip> ...
