5. Repeat from Step 2 to add further VLANs on the same or other Physical Interfaces.
Adding IPv4 Addresses for Master Engines
You can add several IPv4 addresses to each Physical Interface that has been defined as a
Normal Interface. You must add at least one IPv4 address to at least one Normal Interface.
 To add IPv4 addresses for a Master Engine
1. Make sure you are on the Interfaces tab.
2. Right-click a Physical Interface and select New→IPv4 Address or a VLAN Interface and
select New IPv4 Address. The IP Address Properties dialog opens.
3. Enter the IPv4 Address for each node.
4. If necessary, double-click the Contact Address field and define the contact address(es).
•Enter the Default contact address. The default contact address is used by default
whenever a component that belongs to another Location connects to this interface.
•If components from some Locations cannot use the Default contact address, click Add to
define Location-specific contact addresses.
5. Check the automatically filled-in Netmask and adjust it as necessary.
6. Click OK. Repeat from Step 2 to add further IPv4 addresses to the same or other
interfaces.
What’s Next?
 Add IP addresses to the VLAN Interfaces used for Master Engine communications as
instructed in Adding IPv4 Addresses for Master Engines.
Note – If the Normal Interface has VLAN Interfaces, you must add the IPv4 addresses to
the VLAN Interfaces.
What’s Next?
 If you want to change the roles the different interfaces have in the configuration,
proceed to Setting Global Interface Options for Master Engines (page 63).
 Otherwise, proceed to Adding a Virtual IPS Engine Element (page 64).
