¶ Configuring Static IP for WAN Interface
To configure Static IP for WAN Interface, follow the steps below.
- Navigate to the MSP admin console -> Client Workspace
- Click on Sites → Cyber Gateways in the left menu bar → Add Gateway
- Toggle the “WAN Static IP” switch to “Yes” (see screen shot below)
- Add WAN static IP and Gateway details as shown in picture
- Save the configuration and use installation command as described in Multi-interface to deploy the Gateway
¶ Configuring Static IP for Primary and Secondary in HA mode
To configure Static IP for WAN Interface in HA mode, follow the steps below.
- Navigate to the MSP admin console -> Client Workspace
- Click on Sites → Cyber Gateways in the left menu bar → Add Gateway
- High Availability (HA) - Please select ‘Yes’ to deploy CGW in High Availability mode
- Toggle the “WAN Static IP” switch to “Yes” (see screen shot below)
- Enter Primary Node WAN IP with subnet and WAN Gateway
- Enter Secondary Node WAN IP with subnet and WAN Gateway
- Add WAN static IP and Gateway details as shown in picture
- Save the configuration and use installation command as described in Multi-interface to deploy the Gateway
¶ Multi-WAN Deployment with Static IP
Exium support both Single-interface and Multi-interface versions for the Cyber Gateways deployment. However, the Multi-WAN support (as obvious) is only provided in the Multi-interface version. You can deploy the Cyber Gateways on Hardware, in a VM or on Public Cloud of your choice.
A Multi-WAN scenario where the hardware or VM supports multiple network interfaces is shown below. An example of recommended hardware for the Cyber Gateway that supports 4 physical network interfaces is HUNSN Micro Firewall Appliance.
A Multi-WAN deployment scenario with high-availability (HA) is provided below. In the HA deployment, we recommend using a switch on the WAN side as it simplifies the cabling and also accommodate cases where the ISP modem/ router provides only one or limited network interfaces for connectivity.
In case where the Cyber Gateway does not have enough physical network interfaces, Exium can also create virtual network interfaces on the same physical interface to accommodate the Multi-WAN. At a minimum you need a box that supports two physical interfaces, one for the LAN and the other for the WAN to keep the LAN and WAN traffic physically separate.
¶ Activating and Configuring Multi-WAN with static IP
To configure Multi-WAN support, follow the steps below.
- Navigate to the MSP admin console -> Client Workspace
- Click on Sites → Cyber Gateways in the left menu bar → Add Gateway
- Toggle the “WAN Static IP” switch to “Yes” (see screen shot below)
- Add 1st WAN IP and Gateway details as shown in picture
- Add 2nd WAN IP and Gateway details as shown in picture
- Save the configuration and use installation command as described in Multi-interface to deploy the Gateway
