Installation without IP Address Change
Out-of-Path Mode:
The above diagram is an example about how to configure the WebMux in out-of-
path mode without changing the IP addresses of the web servers and other
servers that already exist on the network. This is particularly helpful when the
changing of an existing network of servers causes problems.
In this configuration, all the servers still remain on the same IP network, and can
communicate. From the servers “view”, the WebMux is on the same network as
the servers. On the WebMux, only server LAN cable is connected, since there is
only one network in direct routing mode. WebMux takes at least two IP
addresses to work in this mode, server LAN Interface IP address and farm IP
address.
