8: Line and Tunnel Settings Connecting Multiple Hosts If more than one host is configured, a Host Mode option appears. Host Mode controls how multiple hosts will be accessed. For EDS1100/2100, the Connect Mode supports up to sixteen Hosts. Hosts may be accessed sequentially or simultaneously:  Sequential - Sequential host lists establish a prioritized list of tunnels. The host specified as Host 1 will be attempted first. If that fails, it will proceed to Host 2, 3, etc, in the order they are specified. When a connection drops, the cycle starts again with Host 1 and proceeds in order. Establishing the host order is accomplished with host list promotion (see Host List Promotion on page 60). Sequential is the default Host Mode.  Simultaneous - A tunnel will connect to all hosts accepting a connection. Simultaneous connections occur at the same time to all listed hosts. The device can support a maximum of 64 total aggregate connections.

Connecting Multiple Hosts
If more than one host is
configured, a
Host Mode
option
appears. Host Mode controls
how multiple hosts will be
accessed. For EDS1100/2100,
the Connect Mode supports up
to sixteen Hosts. Hosts may be
accessed sequentially or
simultaneously:
Sequential
– Sequential
host lists establish a
prioritized list of tunnels. The
host specified as Host 1 will
be attempted first. If that
fails, it will proceed to Host
2, 3, etc, in the order they
are specified. When a
connection drops, the cycle
starts again with Host 1 and
proceeds in order.
Establishing the host order
is accomplished with host
list promotion (see
Host List
Promotion on page 60
).
Sequential is the default
Host Mode.
Simultaneous
– A tunnel
will connect to all hosts
accepting a connection.
Simultaneous connections
occur at the same time to all
listed hosts.
The device can
support a maximum of 64
total aggregate connections.
Host List Promotion
This feature allows Host IP promotion of individual hosts in the overall sequence.
To promote a specific Host:
1.
Click the
icon in the desired Host field, for example Host 2 and Host 3.
2.
The selected Host(s) exchanges its place with the Host above it.
3.
Click
Submit
. The hosts change sequence.
