Note

The configuration for Central Manager in MDR is similar to that in the Manager. For more information on the fields in Pair Creation, see the section Configure MDR.

When you enter the Peer Manager IP Address in the Manager Pair, consider the following:

Enter the IP address of the peer Manager (that is, use the address of the Secondary Manager if you have designated this Manager as Primary). You can configure either IPv4 address or IPv6 address or both, as given in the following scenarios:

Steps:

  1. If a Manager is configured in Central Manager over IPv4 network, or you want to add a Manager from the IPv4 network to the Central Manager, you need to enter the IPv4 address of the peer Manager (Central Manager).

  2. If a Manager is configured in Central Manager over IPv6 network, or you want to add a Manager in the IPv6 network to the Central Manager, you need to enter the IPv6 address of the peer Manager (Central Manager).

  3. If there are Managers configured in Central Manager over both IPv4 and IPv6 networks, you need to configure both IPv4 address and IPv6 address of the peer Manager (Central Manager).

    Note

    While configuring the Peer Manager IP Address, ensure that the operating system supports both IPv4 and IPv6 stacks.
