2.9 Configuring Network Settings

After initial setup, you seldom need to change the network settings unless something in your
network changes, such as adding a new gateway or DNS server. These options are for the Access
Gateway Appliance. For the Linux or Windows Access Gateway Service, use the utilities supplied
by the operating system. However, if you add an new network interface card to the Access Gateway
Service machine and use system utilities to configure it and assign it an IP address, you need to
update the Access Gateway Service with this information. See
Address to the Access Gateway Service," on page

2.9.1 Viewing and Modifying Adapter Settings

The adapter settings allow you to view the current configuration for the network adapters installed in
the Access Gateway Appliance and manage the IP addresses that are assigned to them.
If you want to configure an adapter to use more than one IP address, you can use these settings
to add them.
If you have multiple adapters installed on an Access Gateway Appliance machine, you can only
configure eth0 during installation. Use the procedure described in this section to configure the
others.
If you have added an adapter to the machine after installing the Access Gateway, you need to
use the New NIC option before it can appear in the adapter list. See
