| The image below shows the interfaces tab containing
the default realm interface. When selected, an interface
will be highlighted in yellow as shown below.
The interfaces table consists of 5 columns, each of
which is described below:
Name : defined as protocol + n,
where n is a unique number of interfaces for that
protocol
Status : whether the interface is
'Running', 'Stopped' or 'Error' where the interface
has not been started due to an error
Adapter : the physical network interface
to bind to, 0.0.0.0 defines all known interfaces
Port : the port to bind to
Threads : indicator for the number
of accept threads the interface has free to accept
connections, full green denotes all are free
To add a new interface, simply click on the 'Add Interface'
button, which will show a dialog that allows you to
choose the protocol, the adapter, the port as well as
whether the interface should be started automatically
when it is created and also when the server restarts.
This dialog is shown below:
In the example above, we have chosen to add a Nirvana
HTTP Interface (nhp) that will be bound to all known
network interfaces (0.0.0.0) on port 80. With the 'Auto
Start' checked as above, clicking on the 'OK' button
means that when the interface is created in the realm
server, it will automatically be started. 'Auto Start'
will also cause that interface to be started whenever
the Realm is restarted. Once the interfaces has been
created it will appear in the interfaces table as shown
in the image below.
Further instructions on configuring
Nirvana interfaces are also available in the enterprise
manage guide.
In addition a
VIA rule can be added to interfaces as a security
enhancement.
