Ethernet network bonding

For the AnywhereUSB 24 Plus Hub, you can specify the bonding mode for the Ethernet network. The Hub has two physical Ethernet network ports that use the same MAC address and share one IP address. When both ports are being used, they act as one Ethernet network port.

Note This applies to the AnywhereUSB 24 Plus only.

1. Open the web UI.
2. Select Ethernet Network from the Configuration section. The Ethernet Network Configuration dialog appears.
3. In the Ethernet Network Bonding section, select the bonding option that you want to use. Bonding is used when Ethernet cables are connected to both Ethernet network ports.
   • Load Balancing (Round-Robin): The Ethernet network connection alternates between the two ports as the Hub sends data. If one Ethernet network connection fails, all data is sent from the second Ethernet network connection.
   • Fault-Tolerance (Active-Backup): The Hub uses only one of the Ethernet network connections at a time. If one Ethernet network connection fails, all data is sent from the second Ethernet network connection. This is the default.
4. Click Apply.
