Installation Guide

Chapter 4. Network Configuration
Status
Specify if this network interface is On or Off. If the interface is off, all configuration on this page is ignored, and
the Telecommuting Module will behave as if this interface wasn’t present (except when used for failover).
If the interface should be used for failover, you should select Off. In this case, it won’t be available for other traffic
than the synchronizing within the failover team. Read more about failover in chapter 12 of the User Manual.
Interface name
The network Interface name is only used internally in the Telecommuting Module, e. g. when configuring
Networks and Computers.
Directly Connected Networks
The Telecommuting Module must have an IP address on every network to which it is directly connected. This
applies to all networks on the same physical network to which this interface is connected.
Note that the interface which should receive traffic from the outside must have a public IP address (no NAT),
regardless of which Telecommuting Module Type was selected. For a DMZ or DMZ/LAN type, this means that
the interface connected to the DMZ of the firewall must have a public IP address.
Name
A name for this IP address. You can use this name when configuring the administration IP address. This name is
only used internally in the Telecommuting Module.
DNS name or IP address
The name/IP address of the Telecommuting Module on this network interface on this directly connected network.
IP address
Shows the IP address of the DNS name or IP address you entered in the previous field.
Netmask/bits
Enter the mask of the network where the DNS name or IP address applies.
Network address
The IP address of the network where the DNS name or IP address applies.
Broadcast address
Shows the broadcast address of the network in the Network address field.
VLAN id
VLANs are used for clustering IP ranges into logical networks.
A VLAN id is simply a number, which identifies the VLAN uniquely within your network.
Enter a VLAN id for this network. You don’t need to use a named VLAN (defined on the VLAN page).
VLAN name
If you entered the VLAN id of a named VLAN, the name will show here.
