  • Select proxy button in the Connection mode field.
  • Select the the IP address from the Local address drop-down list and enter port number.

Note

  • The Local address drop-down list elements are IP address defined in the Network configuration menu (Network interfaces configuration) or labeled IP addresses (Labeled IP addresses).
  • Selecting the Any option will result in Fudo listening on all configured IP addresses.
  • In case of cluster configuration, select a labeled IP address from the Local address drop-down list and make sure that other nodes have IP addresses assigned to this label. For more information refer to the Labeled IP addresses topic.

gateway

Deprecated since version 5.4

Fudo Enterprise 5.4 is the last version supporting gateway mode in the listeners configuration. Listeners using this mode must be reconfigured to use proxy and bastion modes before upgrading to the next release.

  • Select gateway button in the Connection mode field.
  • Select the network interface used for handling connections over this listener.

transparent

Fudo Enterprise 5.4 is the last version supporting transparent mode in the listeners configuration. Listeners using this mode must be reconfigured to use proxy and bastion modes before upgrading to the next release.
