6.2 Using JP1/Base on multiple networks
This section describes how to use JP1/Base in multiple networks and how you should configure the communication settings for this use.
When you use only physical hosts on a host connected to multiple networks by multiple NICs, you can use the default settings (ANY binding method). There is no need to change the communication settings.
When an authentication server is started by a physical host, the server uses the highest priority IP address corresponding to the host name in the default state. For a host connected to multiple networks using multiple NICs, change the JP1/Base reception method to an IP binding method when changing the IP address used by the authentication server to addresses other than the highest priority IP address corresponding to the host name for starting the authentication server. The setting procedure is described below:
- Note:
-
If you are using JP1/Base 12-00 or later, you do not need to perform the procedure below. If you are upgrading to JP1/Base 12-00 or later from an environment in which JP1/Base 09-10 or earlier is installed and the settings below have been performed, you do not need to edit items that have already been set. You can continue to use those settings as is and the product can be used without any problems.
-
Register the IP address you want to use for an authentication server in jp1hosts.
Edit the jp1hosts definition file as described below.
Host name IP address 1 for an authentication server (, IP address 2 for an authentication server, IP address 3 for an authentication server), the highest priority IP address corresponding to the host name
-
Execute the jbshostsimport command and register it in the common definition information.
Execute the command as described below.
jbshostsimport {-o|-r} jp1hosts-definition-file-name
-
Change the configuration of the communication method.
Execute the command described below, apply the communication method configuration file to the common definition information, and change the configuration of the communication method. The communication method configuration file is stored under the installation-folder\conf\.
- When transmissions are based on the ANY binding method
jbssetcnf physical_ipany.conf
- When transmissions are based on the IP binding method
jbssetcnf physical_ipip.conf
-
After the above procedure is performed, the authentication server receives communication from all IP addresses defined in jp1hosts. If you want to use only a single IP address for reception, place the relevant IP address at the top of the jp1hosts definition file, and then apply the contents of the communication method configuration file (physical_recovery_0651.conf) to the common definition information by using the jbssetcnf command as described below.
jbssetcnf physical_recovery_0651.conf
Be sure to restart JP1/Base when the JP1/Base communication setting is changed.
When you use logical hosts on a host connected by multiple NICs to multiple networks (cluster operation), you need to change communication settings of JP1/Base.
