Overview
IP aliasing is associating more than one IP address to a network interface. It allows us to provide multiple network addresses to a single physical base interface. Adding Alias feature gives the base interface another identity. The zone of base interface is the zone of Alias.
Applicable Version: All
Scenario
Configuration
Configuring alias IP in Seqrite UTM.
1. WAN IP: 1.22.124.221 /24
a) Alias1 IP: 1.22.124.222 /24
b) Alias2 IP: 1.22.124.223 /24
c) Alias3 IP: 1.22.124.224 /24
Note: You must be logged in the Seqrite UTM with admin user with read-write access.
Step 1. Navigating from Functional options
Step 2. Adding Alias interface
Type | Select the Type as Alias. |
Alias ID | It is a unique number used to identify the Alias Alias ID can from 1-255 Note: Alias ID must not be same |
Base Interface | It will the physical interface onto which we want to configure the alias. Note: We can only configure the alias on configured interface |
IPv4 | Enter the IPv4 address provided by the Service provider |
Subnet Mask | Enter the subnet mask provided by the Service provider |
Note: Do not add IPv4 Gateway for WAN base interface if it is within the same subnet.
Step 3. Verification of all alias configuration
Note: In order for the alias to work, the WAN interface must always be green. IP/port forwarding facility can be enjoyed using alias interfaces.
