How /32 Client Networks Work

When a server is added to the Server List, the management console automatically creates a corresponding /32 client network. A /32 client network is a client network with a single IPv4 address.

Use /32 client networks to monitor a multi-tier application. A multi-tier application is an application with more than one server, and communication between servers is performed by at least one server that acts as both a server to client requests, and a client to another server.

To enable a management console user to quickly analyze and respond to network issues on a multi-tier application, assign a network type to your /32 client networks.

When you add a server subnet, you can assign a default network type so that when the management console creates a corresponding /32 client network, the correct network type is assigned.

You cannot delete a /32 client network that was created by the management console. The management console automatically deletes a /32 client network when its corresponding server is deleted from the Server List.
