Specifying a source IP address for outgoing portal packets
After you specify a source IP address for outgoing portal packets on an interface, the IP address is used as the source IP address of packets that the access device sends to the portal server, and the destination IP address of packets that the portal server sends to the access device.
To specify a source IP address for outgoing portal packets to be sent:
Step | Command | Remarks |
|---|---|---|
1. Enter system view. | system-view | N/A |
2. Enter interface view. | interface interface-type interface-number | N/A |
3. Specify a source IP address for outgoing portal packets. | portal nas-ip { ipv4-address | ipv6 ipv6-address } | Optional. By default, no source IP address is specified for outgoing portal packets and the IP address of the user logon interface is used as the source IP address of the outgoing portal packets. In NAT environments, Hewlett Packard Enterprise recommends specifying the interface's public IP address as the source IP address of outgoing portal packets. |
