Configuring Multiple Connection Routes

Updated

You can configure multiple connections for a client computer or a client computer group for multiple network gateway connections, network gateway/multiple network gateway connections, and direct connections.

Configuring Multiple Network Gateway Connections

Use multiple network gateway connections for faster data throughput, high availability, and load balancing.

Procedure

  1. Set up a Commvault network gateway.

  2. Configure the client computer or client computer group to use the Commvault network gateway. See Setting up Network Gateway Connections Using Advanced Network Settings.

Repeat steps 1 and 2, above, for each additional network gateway.

Configuring Network Gateway/Multiple Network Gateway and Direct Connections

If the client is outside the network (see Client 2 in figure below), configure network gateway/multiple network gateway connections for the client computer or client computer group so that the CommServe host can use the network gateway connection to access the client.

If the client is inside the network (see Client 1 in figure below), configure a direct connection for the client computer or client computer group so that the client can use the direct connection to access the CommServe host.

You can configure the one-way direct connection (client connects to the CommServe) using a predefined Network topology or Basic or Advanced network settings.
