Connecting the Network Cables
As there are various models of Winfrasoft Appliances with varying hardware types, the
number of network cards will vary and the physical ports are not labeled on the back of the
appliance.
Appliances Ethernet ports are used as follows, depending on the total number of NIC’s:
External Connection
Internal Connection
DMZ1 / Heartbeat Connection
DMZ2 Connection
DMZ3 Connection
Etc
To work out which physical Ethernet port is which the Winfrasoft Appliance Configuration
Wizard will update the status of each NIC when you plug in a cable. When the wizard is
displaying the External Connection, simply plug in a cable to any available Ethernet port and
if the NIC status doesn’t change to Connected after a few seconds then move the cable to the
next port until it does connect. Repeat this process for each network connection until all
required cables are connected.
Note
Typically appliances with NIC’s located on the motherboard are the Internal
and External ports.
