There are four methods to deal with multiple network interfaces: 1. Allow the Sender to listen on all network interfaces and dynamically add and remove network interfaces, the default behavior of RGS 5.4.0 and beyond. See the Networking support on page 15 section for more detail. 2. Manually reconfigure which of the two network interfaces RGS binds to-see Manual Network Interface reconfiguration on page 87. 3. Use the RGS Sender network interface binding properties (introduced at RGS 5.1) to explicitly specify which network interface RGS binds to-see Network Interface reconfiguration using the Sender network interface binding properties on page 90. 4. Disable one of the network interfaces and restart the Sender-the Sender will then bind to the enabled network interface. The disadvantage of this method, of course, is that one of the network interfaces will no longer be usable. Methods 2 and 3 are described in the next two sections. Manual Network Interface reconfiguration To manually configure which network interface the Sender binds to, set the Sender property Rgsender.Network.IsListenOnAllInterfacesEnabled=0 overriding the default which is to listen on all interfaces. See Network Interface binding properties on page 193, for more detail. If the Sender property Rgsender.Network.IsListenOnAllInterfacesEnabled=0 then the RGS Sender binds to the first network interface detected during booting. To determine the IP address of the first network interface, perform the following steps on the Remote Computer: 1. To view both network interfaces, click Start> Control Panel > Network Connections (see Figure 4-1 Viewing network interfaces on page 87).

There are four methods to deal with multiple network interfaces:
1.
Allow the Sender to listen on all network interfaces and dynamically add and remove network
interfaces, the default behavior of RGS 5.4.0 and beyond. See the
Networking support
on page
15
section for more detail.
2.
Manually reconfigure which of the two network interfaces RGS binds to—see
Manual Network
Interface reconfiguration
on page
87
.
3.
Use the RGS Sender network interface binding properties (introduced at RGS 5.1) to explicitly
specify which network interface RGS binds to—see
Network Interface reconfiguration using the
Sender network interface binding properties
on page
90
.
4.
Disable one of the network interfaces and restart the Sender—the Sender will then bind to the
enabled network interface. The disadvantage of this method, of course, is that one of the network
interfaces will no longer be usable.
Methods 2 and 3 are described in the next two sections.
Manual Network Interface reconfiguration
To manually configure which network interface the Sender binds to, set the Sender property
Rgsender.Network.IsListenOnAllInterfacesEnabled=0 overriding the default which is to listen on all
interfaces. See
Network Interface binding properties
on page
193
, for more detail. If the Sender
property Rgsender.Network.IsListenOnAllInterfacesEnabled=0 then the RGS Sender binds to the first
network interface detected during booting. To determine the IP address of the first network interface,
perform the following steps on the Remote Computer:
