Notes:
•
If a vThunder instance is running in “non-dedicated management port mode,” then a DHCP server should be set up for at least one of the interfaces to ensure that management access is possible.
•
The auto-populated contents of the config file that is automatically created when the “non-dedicated management port mode” is enabled (i.e., the sample shown above) should not be deleted or modified, or this may cause the feature to stop working.
•
This feature applies to vThunder for VMware and does not apply to any other hypervisor flavors upon which vThunder can run.
•
This feature is supported in the following releases: ACOS 2.7.2-P4 through 2.7.2-P9, and ACOS 4.1.1.
Adding Extra Ethernet Data Interfaces
The vThunder has two data interfaces by default. You can add more data interfaces as needed. Before adding an interface, see
“Adding Extra Port Groups if Necessary” on page 18
.
NOTE:
The management interface always must be the first interface.
NOTE:
vThunder does not support hot-swapping Ethernet ports. To add a new data port, you must stop the running instance, add the new port or delete an existing port, and then restart the vThunder instance.
To add a data interface:
1. In the virtual machines inventory, select the vThunder virtual machine.
2. Click the Getting Started tab, if the page is not already displayed.
3. On the Getting Started page, select Edit virtual machines settings.
