Adding MIS servers to your network

Assign each server a static IPv4 address. If you are using the internet for MIS access, place firewalls between your MIS probe servers and their internet connection, and between the central server and its internet connection. As a minimum, assign a DNS entry to the central server to facilitate client access.

IP port utilization

Numerous TCP/UDP ports are used for intra application communication and to provide MIS client access.

IPMI LAN

If your site uses IPMI for management connect the server IPMI port to the IPMI LAN.

Network bandwidth

Provide sufficient bandwidth between the server and the monitoring facility. Size the bandwidth to be 1.2-1.5 times the sum of the viewed stream’s bandwidth, with a minimum connection speed of 10 Mbps.
