Add Virtual Interface
The virtual network interface allows you to configure a new interface such as a VPN tunnel that
encapsulates data inside a transport protocol. The supported tunneling protocols include GRE,
L2TP, PPP, and PPtP.
The virtual interface can be created for other reasons, such as to configure a relay bridge to
extend the wireless network.
Note:
Adding a virtual interface may require modifications to the load balancer
configuration. For load balancer configuration, see
Load Balancing
. For additional support
and knowledge base articles, please visit
Lantronix Support
.
To add a new interface:
1.
Go to Network > Interfaces, scroll to the bottom of the list of interfaces and click
Add new
interface.
