Adding External IP Addresses Manually

Adding a Lighthouse instance’s external IP address or addresses manually to a Lighthouse instance’s configuration is an optional step. In general, these should not be changed expect by a network support engineer.

Note: IP addresses can be IPv4, IPv6 or DNS names.

To add external addresses to a Lighthouse instance’s configuration:

  1. Select > SYSTEM > Network Settings.

  2. Click Add External Network Address.

  3. A dialog will appear.

  4. Enter the External Endpoint address.

  5. Change the API Port, VPN Port, or Multi-Instance VPN Port if the ports used on the entered IP address are different from the default settings.

  6. Click Add Address.

To change the order in which manually added IP addresses are sent to remote nodes:

  1. Use the icons to change the order in which the IP addresses are listed.

  2. Click Apply.

If external IP addresses are manually added to a Lighthouse configuration, these addresses are sent to a remote node during enrollment. If no external IP address is manually added, default external IP addresses are used.

The external IP addresses are sent to a remote node during Enrollment in the order configured.
