Introduction
A basic community configuration at ONENETS includes a single ipv4, configured by using DHCP. when you have excellent networking requirements, ONENETS helps more than one public IPS and up to 5 private networks. you want to manually configure these advanced situations. Refer to the networking configuration web page within the client portal for your specific configuration. This example demonstrates three public ipv4 addresses, two personal ipv4 networks, and two public ipv6 addresses.

Example for CentOS 8

Public Network

  1. Define three public IPv4 addresses and two public IPv6 addresses on adapter ens3.
    Populate /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ens3 with:

    TYPE="Ethernet"
    DEVICE="ens3"
    ONBOOT="yes"
    BOOTPROTO="none"
    IPADDR=192.0.2.101
    PREFIX=23
    GATEWAY=192.0.2.1
    DNS1=192.0.2.200
    IPADDR1=192.0.2.102
    PREFIX1=32
    IPADDR2=192.0.2.103
    PREFIX2=32
    IPV6INIT="yes"
    IPV6_AUTOCONF="yes"
    IPV6ADDR_SECONDARIES="2001:db8:1000::100 2001:db8:1000::200" 
    
  2. Restart the connection or reboot.

    # nmcli con load /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ens3
    # nmcli con up 'System ens3'
    

Private Network

  1. Define the first private network on adapter ens7.
    Populate /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ens7 with:

    TYPE="Ethernet"
    DEVICE="ens7"
    ONBOOT="yes"
    BOOTPROTO="none"
    IPADDR=10.1.1.100
    PREFIX=20
    MTU=1450
    
  2. Restart the connection or reboot.

    # nmcli con load /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ens7
    # nmcli con up 'System ens7'
    
  3. Define the second private network on adapter ens8.
    Populate /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ens8 with:

    TYPE="Ethernet"
    DEVICE="ens8"
    ONBOOT="yes"
    BOOTPROTO="none"
    IPADDR=10.1.1.200
    PREFIX=20
    MTU=1450
    
  4. Restart the connection or reboot.

    # nmcli con load /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ens8
    # nmcli con up 'System ens8'
    

Example for CentOS 6 and 7

Public Network

Configure the public network with three public IPv4 addresses and two public IPv6 addresses.

  1. Define the first public IPv4 and both public IPv6 addresses on adapter eth0.
    Populate /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 with:

    DEVICE=eth0
    ONBOOT=yes
    BOOTPROTO=static
    IPADDR=192.0.2.101
    NETMASK=255.255.254.0
    GATEWAY=192.0.2.1
    DNS1=192.0.2.200
    
    IPV6INIT=yes
    IPV6ADDR="2001:db8:1000::100/64"
    IPV6_AUTOCONF="yes"
    IPV6ADDR_SECONDARIES="2001:db8:1000::200/64" 
    DNS2=2001:db8:1000::1
    
  2. Set the default route for eth0.
    Populate /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/route-eth0 with:

    169.254.0.0/16 dev eth0
    
  3. Define the second public IPv4 on adapter eth0:1.
    Populate /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0:1 with:

    DEVICE=eth0:1
    BOOTPROTO=static
    IPADDR=192.0.2.102
    NETMASK=255.255.255.255
    ONBOOT=yes
    
  4. Define the third public IPv4 on adapter eth0:2.
    Populate /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0:2 with:

    DEVICE=eth0:2
    BOOTPROTO=static
    IPADDR=192.0.2.103
    NETMASK=255.255.255.255
    ONBOOT=yes
    

Private Network

  1. Define the first private network on adapter eth1.
    Populate /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1 with:

    DEVICE=eth1
    ONBOOT=yes
    BOOTPROTO=static
    IPADDR=10.1.1.100
    NETMASK=255.255.240.0
    MTU=1450
    
  2. Define the second private network on adapter eth2.
    Populate /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth2 with:

    DEVICE=eth2
    ONBOOT=yes
    BOOTPROTO=static
    IPADDR=10.1.1.200
    NETMASK=255.255.240.0
    MTU=1450
    

Activate Network Changes

Restart networking or reboot to activate the network changes.

# service network restart

Note: If you have IP forwarding enabled (using your server as a VPN or similar), you will also need to add the following lines to /etc/sysctl.conf file. The default settings for these variables (which is 1), prevents IPv6 from working properly when IP forwarding is enabled. You can check if IP forwarding is enabled by running sysctl net.ipv4.ip_forward.

net.ipv6.conf.all.accept_ra=2
net.ipv6.conf.eth0.accept_ra=2

Nameservers

Verify that /etc/resolv.conf has your preferred nameservers for IPv4, and optionally IPv6.

domain       example.com
nameserver   2001:db8:1000::1
nameserver   192.0.2.200
