Configuring IP Routing Options

You can configure multiple IP addresses and enable anycast addressing on the loopback interface of the NIOS appliance, allowing the appliance to function in different network deployments.
Configuring non-anycast IP addresses on the loopback interface assists in server migration and network address change. Configuring anycast addresses on the appliance allows you to add redundancy and improve reliability for DNS services. You can use OSPF (Open Shortest Path First), BGP (Border Gateway Protocol), or both, as the routing protocol for anycast advertising.
