 If you have multiple network interfaces configured for a host, you can enable or disable them and set routing priorities by configuring routing metrics. You can also modify the network configuration for physical and virtual appliances deployed through OVA, by using a downloaded Infoblox image. If you have configured multiple network interfaces on Kubernetes-based hosts, all Ethernet ports will be displayed on this page. For information about using multiple interfaces, see Multiple Network Interfaces for Hosts.

You can configure IPv4-only or IPv4/IPv6 dual-stack networks for a host. However, if you enable DNS or DHCP services on the host, IPv4/IPv6 dual-stack networks will not be supported.

...

  • Network Interface: The names (such as enp1s0 and enp2s0) of the Ethernet ports on the appliance. You can configure up to two network interfaces for the same network gateway. All network interfaces you have configured appear in the table. You cannot modify this field.

  • Interface Type: WAN or LAN, based on your deployment. You may or may not be able to change the interface type. When your hosts have multiple interfaces, the lowest metric interface will be marked as WAN and the rest of the interfaces will be marked as LAN.

  • Interface Label: The interface label defines the interface binding between the BloxOne service and the interface on which the service runs. You can add a custom label to associate the host with the interface binding. To add multiple interface labels, click for Add Interface Label. Note that WAN and LAN are considered as interface labels.

  • Protocol: From the drop-down menu, choose IPv4 to configure IPv4 interfaces or Dual Stack IPv4/Pv6 to configure IPv6 interfaces.

  • IPv4 MTU: The maximum transmission unit for the IPv4 network, which is the size of the largest protocol data-unit that can be communicated in a single network-layer transaction. Enter a value from 576 to 9001. The default value is 1500.
