[solved] WebGUI bind to LAGG

[spammeatwill]

Hi,

I have setup the NAS4FREE box in a way that SAMBA is served through a link aggregation interface.
This interface happens to be in my main network, from which I need access to the WebGUI.
How can I bind the WebGUI on another interface?

Thanks!

Hi,

I still don't have a clue on how to do this. Maybe I am getting this wrong?

What I am trying to do is to have more link capacity for my SAMBA clients (main network) while having a dedicated storage/backup network:

Code: Select all

                                     +-------------------+
 main network   +----+-------+-------|re0+re1         em0|-------> to storage/backup network
                |    |       |       +-------------------+
             (C1) (C2) ... (Cn)

I figured that the LACP interface ports should be more usefull on the main network to distribute the load.

The problem is that LAN is on the em0... and I can't access management GUI from the main network.

Lighthttpd seems to bind only to em0 and in this case I need it to be on re0+re1 side.

Can this be done?

Well, I found a solution to this by editing the rc file for lighttpd... It is not an ideal solution, but at least it works.

Near the end, I have commented out the ipaddr variable and hardcoded 0.0.0.0 to bind on all interfaces:

Code: Select all

nasserver1: ~ # grep server.bind /etc/rc.d/lighttpd
server.bind = "0.0.0.0" #"${_ipaddr}"

Previously I tried to edit /var/etc/lighttpd.conf but soon realized that it is overwritten on every restart by the rc file above.

I would like to have a more permanent configurable solution for this.

Thanks.

Is there any way I could make this change permanent? Although it survives a lighttpd restart, it does not survive a reboot...

Edit:

It occurred to me that I could try and swap LAN and OPT1 interfaces, so that LAN is bound to lagg0 and OPT1 to em0. It works

As you discover answer is to setup properly LAN and OPT1 in webgui.

Webgui is allways bind to LAN.
