If you try to configure the separate management interface and the data interface in
the same segment in IWSVA, a warning message displays. You can ignore this warning
message and continue configuration. When you enable the separate management interface,
IWSVA responds to eligible Web requests on one of the two interfaces.
Client Internet requests are sent to the separate management interface on the IWSVA
server due to the following:
-
A higher-priority route is assigned to the separate management interface.
-
Client computers have the same ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) entries for the data
interface and separate management interface
Since the separate management interface does not carry user data, IWSVA will not process
Internet requests and, thus, Internet connection is not available for users through
the separate management interface.
Solution
When you enable the separate management interface, make sure you set the data interface
and the management interface in different network segments.
For example, configure the data interface in the 192.168.10.X/24 network segment and
configure the separate management interface in the 10.204. 170.0/24 network segment.
