Setting up multihoming

Follow these steps to set up multihoming capabilities on your server:

1 Install PCI network cards (and associated software) for additional network segments that

you want to connect to your server.

Follow the instructions in Chapter 3 of this setup guide.

Note: This step is optional, as you can take advantage of multihoming

capabilities even when network segments are connected only to the built-in

LocalTalk and Ethernet ports on your server.

2 Conﬁgure the Open Transport options for your server.

Follow the instructions for configuring your AppleTalk network connection in

Chapter 2, “Configuring Your Network Connection,” of the Work gr o up Server

Administrator’s Guide.

IMPORTANT

Each port must be assigned to a different zone.

3 Conﬁgure your network server software to enable multihoming on your server.

See the documentation that accompanied your network server software.

(For AppleShare version 4.2.1, see the Addendum to AppleShare

Administrator’s Guide.)

Use a router to connect each network segment

Although users on different multihomed network segments can share and

exchange ﬁles by using the server as a common storage area, each multihomed

network segment is not visible to the other segments without use of a router.

For example, suppose you have four multihomed network segments connected

to your server (A, B, C, and D). Computers and other network devices such as

LaserWriter printers on segment A are not visible to segments B, C, or D

unless there’s a router between A and the other three segments.
