5.1. Appliance Network Teaming Conguration
NIC teaming consists of aggregating network interfaces on a server. In this scenario, two interfaces share
one published static IP address in your network. Traic is routed to the shared IP and onto the network
device that is active or answering. NIC teaming can be used to increase the network bandwidth available
in a network and provide redundancy to support higher availability. The attributes shown are the
Exabeam supported configurations.
Apply the steps based on the environment your hosts operate with:
• DHCP (with static IP lease), or
• Static IP
5.1.1. DHCP TEAMING CONFIGURATION
Set up a named session to connect to the host and establish administrator credentials. This allows the
process to continue in the event you lose connection to the host.
screen -LS [session_name]
sudo su -
Go to the network configuration directory.
cd /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/
Backup existing network interface configuration files, for example, to /home/exabeam/. (Do not place
backups into /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts.)
cp ifcfg-eno* /home/exabeam/
Create and bind network interfaces. In this example, the host interfaces eno1 and eno2 are aggregated
to make team0 for the runner state activebackup.
nmcli connection add type team con-name team0 ifname team0 config '{"runner":
{"name": "activebackup"}}'
nmcli connection add type team-slave con-name team0-slave1 ifname eno1 master
team0
nmcli connection add type team-slave con-name team0-slave2 ifname eno2 master
team0
Restart your interfaces. At this point, you may experience 5-10 seconds of unresponsive SSH.
