Step H: Configure the Egress Nodes - AWS Elemental Delta

This is version 2.3 of the AWS Elemental Delta documentation. This is the latest version. For prior versions, see the Previous Versions section of AWS Elemental Delta Documentation.

Step H: Configure the Egress Nodes

Most of the information from the leader node is copied over to the egress nodes. However, you must manually set up some features on the egress nodes.

To configure the egress node

  1. Access the web interface via the VIP address for the management interface (eth0). You set up this VIP when you configured the leader node. See Creating VIPs.

    Note

    Do not access the web interface from the IP address of the leader or secondary nodes.

  2. Set up the egress nodes with additional network devices or bonds as needed. For assistance, see Configuring Ethernet Network Devices.

  3. Address these features if you enabled them on the leader node:

    Mount points

    Set up the egress nodes with identical mount points as the leader node.

    For assistance, see Adding Mount Points.

    AWS credentials

    Set up the secondary node with identical credentials as the leader node.

    For assistance, see Adding AWS Credentials.

    Firewall ports

    Start the firewall and open the same ports on the egress nodes that you opened on the leader node.

    For assistance, see Opening Ports on the Firewall.
