Servers window, right-click, and select Add Network Interface.
• To modify an existing network interface, select that interface, right-
click, and select Properties. The network interface must be down; you

Net Mask: Type the net mask for the network interface.
Allow Administrative Traffic: Specify whether the network interface can
host administrative traffic for HP Clustered File System. The options are:
• Allow. The default is to allow the traffic.
• Discourage. This network will be used for administrative traffic only

command:
mx netif add --server <server> --netmask <interface_netmask>
[--adminTraffic <allow|discourage|exclude>] <interface_ip>
