This removes the "Backup Management" first level heading in the docs, and either uses the sub headings contained within it as first level headings, or groups previous sections logically under new headings. The administration-guide.rst file is also removed. Its contents are instead separated into various files, that relate to their respective first level heading.

Network Management
|
|
==================
|
|
|
|
Proxmox Backup Server provides both a web interface and a command line tool for
|
|
network configuration. You can find the configuration options in the web
|
|
interface under the **Network Interfaces** section of the **Configuration** menu
|
|
tree item. The command line tool is accessed via the ``network`` subcommand.
|
|
These interfaces allow you to carry out some basic network management tasks,
|
|
such as adding, configuring, and removing network interfaces.
|
|
|
|
.. note:: Any changes made to the network configuration are not
|
|
applied, until you click on **Apply Configuration** or enter the ``network
|
|
reload`` command. This allows you to make many changes at once. It also allows
|
|
you to ensure that your changes are correct before applying them, as making a
|
|
mistake here can render the server inaccessible over the network.
|
|
|
|
To get a list of available interfaces, use the following command:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
# proxmox-backup-manager network list

:alt: Add a network interface
|
|
|
|
To add a new network interface, use the ``create`` subcommand with the relevant
|
|
parameters. For example, you may want to set up a bond, for the purpose of
|
|
network redundancy. The following command shows a template for creating the bond shown
|
|
in the list above:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
# proxmox-backup-manager network create bond0 --type bond --bond_mode active-backup --slaves ens18,ens19 --autostart true --cidr x.x.x.x/x --gateway x.x.x.x
|
|
|
|
You can make changes to the configuration of a network interface with the
|
|
``update`` subcommand:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
# proxmox-backup-manager network update bond0 --cidr y.y.y.y/y
|
|
|
|
You can also remove a network interface:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
# proxmox-backup-manager network remove bond0
|
|
|
|
The pending changes for the network configuration file will appear at the bottom of the
|
|
web interface. You can also view these changes, by using the command:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
# proxmox-backup-manager network changes
|
|
|
|
If you would like to cancel all changes at this point, you can either click on
|
|
the **Revert** button or use the following command:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
# proxmox-backup-manager network revert
|
|
|
|
If you are happy with the changes and would like to write them into the
|
|
configuration file, select **Apply Configuration**. The corresponding command
|
|
is:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
# proxmox-backup-manager network reload
|
|
|
|
.. note:: This command and corresponding GUI button rely on the ``ifreload``
|
|
command, from the package ``ifupdown2``. This package is included within the
|
|
Proxmox Backup Server installation, however, you may have to install it yourself,
|
|
if you have installed Proxmox Backup Server on top of Debian or Proxmox VE.
|
|
|
|
You can also configure DNS settings, from the **DNS** section
|
|
of **Configuration** or by using the ``dns`` subcommand of
|
|
``proxmox-backup-manager``.
