Configuring the management interface

This section describes how to activate the interface.

 NOTE:

When SSB is deployed in a virtual environment and only a single network interface is configured, then that interface starts to serve as the management interface. In such cases, the Management interface function becomes redundant and is not displayed on the user interface.

To activate the interface

  1. Navigate to Basic Settings > Network > Interfaces.

    Figure 23: Basic Settings > Network > Interfaces > Management interface — Configuring the management interface

  2. In the Management interface field, select Enable management interface.

  3. Into the Address field, enter the IP address of SSB's management interface.

  4. Into the Netmask field, enter the netmask related to the IP address.

  		5.  Caution:

    After clicking Commit, the web interface will be available only via the management interface — it will not be accessible using the current (external) interface, unless the Management enabled option is selected for the external interface.

    Ensure that the Ethernet cable is plugged and the management interface is connected to the network, this is indicated by a green check icon in the Basic settings > Networks > Ethernet links > HA interface > Link field. When using High Availability, ensure that the management interface of both SSB units is connected to the network.

    The HA interface section indicates if a link is detected on the high availability interface.

    Click Commit.

Configuring the routing table

The routing table contains the network destinations SSB can reach. You have to make sure that the local services of SSB (including connections made to the backup and archive servers, the syslog server, and the SMTP server) are routed properly.

You can add multiple addresses along with their respective gateways.

 Caution:

Complete the following procedure only if the management interface is configured, otherwise the data sent by SSB will be lost. For details on configuring the management interface, see Configuring the management interface.

To configure the routing table

  1. To add a new routing entry, navigate to Basic Settings > Network > Interfaces and in the Routing table field, click .

    Figure 24: Basic Settings > Network > Interfaces > Routing

  2. Enter the IP address of the remote server into the Address field.

  3. Enter the related netmask into the Netmask field.

  4. Enter the IP address of the gateway used on that subnetwork into the Gateway field.

  5. If you wish to reply on the same interface where a packet came in, then check the Reply on same interface checkbox. This instructs SSB to disregard connected networks other than the network of the incoming packet's interface when routing reply packets.

  6. Click Commit.

Date and time configuration

Date and time related settings of SSB can be configured on the Date & Time tab of the Basic page.

Figure 25: Basic Settings > Date & Time — Set date and time

 Caution:

It is essential to set the date and time correctly on SSB, otherwise the date information of the logs will be inaccurate.

SSB displays a warning on this page and sends an alert if the time becomes out of sync.

To explicitly set the date and time on SSB, enter the current date into respective fields of the Date & Time Settings group and click Set Date & Time.

 NOTE:

If the time setting of SSB is very inaccurate (that is, the difference between the system time and the actual time is great), it might take a long time to retrieve the date from the NTP server. In this case, click Sync now to sync the time immediately using SNTP.

When two SSB units are operating in high availability mode, the Sync now button is named Sync Master, and synchronizes the time of the master node to the NTP server. To synchronize the time between the master and the slave nodes, click Sync Slave to Master.

Configuring a time (NTP) server

This section describes how to retrieve the date automatically from a time server.

 Caution:

It is not recommended to change the timezone, because logspace rotation is based on your currently configured local timezone. If you change the timezone, you will not be able to search in your previously stored logs. Before changing the timezone, contact our Support Team.

To retrieve the date automatically from a time server

  1. Select your timezone in the Timezone field.

  2. Enter the IP address of an NTP time server into the Address field.

  3. Click Commit.

  4. Click the and icons to add new servers or delete existing ones.
