Change the Domain of Interfaces and CVIs

Administrators can change the parent domain for interfaces and custom virtual interfaces (CVIs), regardless of the domain of the parent router. Perform this step at any time after the Harvesters and routers are set up.

Note: Any managed items that are not associated with a custom IP domain by a data source are associated with the Default Domain. This assignment is transparent to users who are not deploying custom IP domains.

Follow these steps:

1. Open the Active Interfaces page:
   1. Select Administration from the NFA console menu.

      The Administration page opens.

   2. Select Interfaces: Physical & Virtual from the Administration menu.

      The Active Interfaces page opens, which lists the current routers and their active interfaces.

2. Locate the interface or interfaces that you want to add to a domain.
   • To search for parent routers, interfaces, or CVIs, enter all or part of a router IP address, a router or interface name, or an interface description in the Search field, then click Search. Expand the router details.
   • To navigate to an interface or CVI manually, go to the page that contains the parent router and click the arrow next to the router name. The router details expand to show the interfaces and CVIs.
3. Select the check box next to one or more interfaces or CVIs that you want to add to a domain.

   Note: By default, interfaces are associated with the domain of the parent router. You can put interfaces and CVIs in a different domain than the parent router, however.

4. Click Edit.

   The dialog for editing the interfaces or CVIs opens.

   Note: The Domain selection list is included in the editing dialog only if multiple domains exist.

5. Select the appropriate tenant/domain from the Domain list.
6. Click Save.

   The dialog closes. The changes are shown on the Active Interfaces page.

Note: You can also change the Harvester domain by editing Harvester details. If you change the Harvester domain, any routers and interfaces that are enabled after the change are assigned to the new domain automatically. The routers and interfaces that were enabled before the change continue to be associated with the previous Harvester domain.
