  • Under the network tab, configure the 'Network' settings for your environment. For example (exact values will depend on your setup):

    Public (External):

    • IP Range: 172.16.0.2 - 172.16.0.126
      • CIDR: 172.16.0.0/24
      • Use VLAN tagging: No
      • Gateway: 172.16.0.1
    • Floating IP range: 172.16.0.130 - 172.16.0.254

    Management (Management):

  • Under the settings tab, make sure the following options are checked:

    "Use Astara Network Orchestrator"

  • Under the setting tab, configure Astara Management Service Port, API Port, and Management IPv6 prefix

    • Astara Management IPv6 Prefix
    • Astara Management Service Port
    • Astara API Service Port

  • Add nodes

  • Deploy changes
