Enter Server LAN WebMux™ IP Address:

This is the IP address of the WebMux™ interface that connects to the Server

LAN. This IP address must also be unique for each WebMux™. The purpose of

this IP address is to allow the WebMux™ to check the network and server health.

Even for the backup WebMux™, this address must be unique. It is highly

recommended to add this IP address to your servers /etc/hosts file, along with

the gateway IP address, to allow faster name resolution, especially on

Linux/Unix. Please also refer to Appendix for adding loopback to servers.

In an installation with a primary and secondary WebMux™, one unique IP

address is required for each WebMux™ interface that connects to the Server

LAN. Those two unique IP addresses are in addition to the farm IP address that

is floating between the primary and secondary WebMux™.

Enter Server LAN Network IP Address Mask:

This is the network mask of the Server LAN. For a class A network, it may be

255.0.0.0. For a class C network, it may be 255.255.255.0.

Enter Server LAN Gateway IP address (optional):

This is an optional configuration that is used only if you are going to do SSL

termination or Layer 7 load balancing. Keep in mind this is an IP address

assigned to the Server LAN network interface. Be sure to use a unique IP

address or duplicate IPs on the network will occur. Enter 0.0.0.0 if not needed.
