Networking

On the order form, users choose which network each NIC connects to and how its IP address is assigned

  2 minute read  

The available networks depend on the group and environment selected on the order form.

Choose which networks are available

Control which networks a group can use on its Networks tab. You need permission to manage the group’s networks.

  1. Go to Groups and select a group to open its details.
  2. Select the Networks tab. Each row is a network associated with the group, and each column is a NIC. Use the NIC columns to show selector to set how many NIC columns appear (1 to 10; four by default).
  3. In the cell where a network and a NIC intersect, use the toggle to make that network available on that NIC.

Environments work the same way: go to Admin > Environments, select an environment, and open its Networks tab. In some environments, such as AWS and Azure, the tab also has an import button (Import Subnets, or Import VPC Subnets in an AWS environment) that brings in subnets before you enable them.

When a NIC has more than one network enabled, the user chooses one at order time.

To create new networks, or to configure the IP addressing options available for a given network, see Networks. To assign addresses from a range held on the network, see IP ranges.

  • Networks: Add and manage networks.
  • IP ranges: Assign addresses from a range held on the network.
