Configuring End-to-End Communication on Non-Default Network Cards

In environments where server machines have multiple network interface cards (NICs), you can configure RAP components to communicate using specific, non-default network cards from input through to output.

Every NIC on your computer has an IP address. This address is assigned when the computer is configured, or after the card is installed. In environments where servers have more than one NIC, you can configure RAP components to communicate using non-default cards.

Establishing end-to-end communication over specific, non-default cards involves:

Configuring the Event Stream Processor cluster to communicate on a specific, non-default card.
Configuring the ESP SDKs to use the specified card when communicating with the cluster.
Configuring Event Stream Processor to communicate with the output destinations, such as SAP HANA (or ASE) and Sybase IQ using specific network cards on their respective servers.

Configuring an ESP Cluster to Communicate on a Specific Network Card
If the machine hosting Event Stream Processor is equipped with more than one network card, you can configure the cluster to use a specific card for all network communication.
Configuring the ESP SDK to Communicate with a Specific Network Card
Specify the destination network card for communication requests between the ESP SDK and an ESP cluster.
Configuring Connections to Databases Using Specific Network Cards
Configure Event Stream Processor to communicate with the SAP HANA (or ASE) and Sybase IQ databases using specific network cards instead of the defaults.
