Enable multiplexing

In addition to a primary Guardian, Remote Collectors can multiplex traffic to a set of secondary Guardians. Each Guardian receives the same traffic information from the Remote Collector.

To enable multiplexing, configure a secondary Guardian. Although every Guardian receives the same traffic information, only the primary Guardian is authorized to change its settings. At each sync, in the event of a communication failure with the primary Guardian, the secondary Guardian acquires the configuration capabilities.

  1. Enter the command:
    n2os-tui
  2. In the menu, select Remote Collector.

    The Remote Collector Management menu opens.
  3. In the menu, select Set secondary endpoint.

  4. Enter the internet protocol (IP) address and token of the secondary endpoint.
  5. In the menu, select Set secondary token.
  6. Enter the sync token for the secondary Guardian.
  7. Exit from the text-based user interface (TUI).
Multiplexing has been enabled.
