IBM Tivoli Monitoring, Version 6.3 Fix Pack 2
Specify network interfaces
If there are multiple TCP/IP interfaces on the computer on which a monitoring server is running, identify which interfaces monitoring agents or the Tivoli Enterprise Portal Server should use when connecting to the monitoring server. Setting network interfaces affects all the components installed on the local computer.
For instructions on configuring a network interface list on z/OS, see Configure the Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Server on z/OS.
To specify the network interfaces to be used by the portal to connect to a hub monitoring server, or by a monitoring agent to connect to a hub or remote, complete these steps:
- In the Manage Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Services window, select Actions → Advanced → Set Network Interface.
- On the Set Desired Network Interface window specify the network interface or interface you want to use
Specify each network adapter by the host name or IP address to be used for input and output. Use a blank space to separate the entries. If your site supports DNS, you can specify IP addresses or short host names. If your site does not support DNS, specify fully qualified host names.
- Click OK to close save the settings and close the window.
