The New GRE window opens in the Configuration tab.
3. Enter the applicable information for the GRE Settings fields:
GRE IPv4 Interface Address Settings section:
n
IPaddress - The IP address on a local interface (physical).
n
Peer address - The IP address of the remote peer (physical).
Interface Settings:
n
GRE tunnel ID - The ID is used as part of the GRE interface name. For example,
if the ID is "4", the interface name is "gre4"
n
TTL - Time to Live in seconds. The value is usually 255.
Source Address and Remote Gateway Address:
n
Local address - The IP address assigned to the GRE interface (virtual).
n

BOND
Bonding, also known as Link Aggregation, is a process that joins two or more interfaces
together. It improves performance and redundancy by increasing the network throughput and
bandwidth. The LAN Bond can be an unassigned network or a cluster interface.
Use Case
Link Aggregation binds two or more physical ports together to form a LAG (Link Aggregation
Group) bundle that results in higher bandwidth and link redundancy. If one link in the group
fails, traffic is automatically routed through the remaining interfaces.
To create a BOND (LAN):
1. In the Local Network page, click New and select BOND (Link Aggregation).
The New BOND window opens.
2. In the Configuration tab, under BOND configuration, select a minimum of 2 LANs that
are unassigned and disabled.
Note - You cannot select LAN interfaces that have a VLAN assigned to them.
