Network Configuration
Network interfaces configuration
System settings are available for a user with
superadmin
role only.
Fudo One allows managing physical interfaces and defining IP addresses.
Defined IP addresses are physical interface’s aliases, which are used in server’s configuration procedures (Local address field in proxy configuration).
Defining of an IP address
To define an IP of a physical network interface, proceed as follows.
-
Select Settings > Network configuration.
-
Click the + button and provide IP address and subnet mask in CIDR format.
-
Select additional options for the IP address being defined.
- Enable access to administration panel on given IP address. Note that the management IP address is also used as service access over SSH protocol (using the default port 65522).
- Enable access to Access Gateway on given IP address.
-
Click Save.
Removing defined IP addresses
Deleting of an IP address disables access to servers which had this IP configured in the local address of the proxy server.
To delete an IP address assigned to a given network interface, proceed as follows.
- Select Settings > Network configuration.
- Select the x option by the desired IP address.
- Click Save.
Disabling network interface
To deactivate a network interface, proceed as follows.
- Select Settings > Network configuration.
- Click Active next to given interface to deactivate it.
- Click Save.
Virtual networks (VLANs) configuration

DNS configuration
DNS servers enable using mnemonic hosts names instead of IP addresses when configuring various network resources.
Defining domain search path
Domain search path enables convenient hosts identification based on short names. For example, defining tech.whl
as the domain search path, enables defining target host as ftp instead of ftp.tech.whl
.
To define a domain search path, proceed as follows.
- Select Settings > Network configuration > Name & DNS tab.
- Enter the domain search path.
- To define more than one value, enter desired values separated by space character. E.g.
tech.whl wheel.com
.- Protocol implementation enables defining up to six domain search paths.
- Click the Add DNS server button to add more DNS server definitions.
- Click Save.
Deleting a DNS server definition
Deleting a DNS server definition may cause interruptions in device operation, if system configuration uses hosts names instead of IP addresses.
To delete a DNS server definition, proceed as follows.
- Select Settings > Network configuration > Name & DNS tab.
- Find and select given DNS server definition.
- Click the x button.
- Click Save.
Routing configuration
