Affected Product & Version: NetVault: Backup 8.x
Affected Module & Version: n/a
OS Version: Microsoft Windows
Application Information: n/a
Description:
NVBU Configurator allows the setting of a preferred and/or barred address for a given NetVault machine. These settings only affect the address other NetVault machines use to contact it - effectively the machines incoming address. The outgoing address used by the NetVault machine when contacting other machines is not affected by these settings.
The impact of this behaviour is felt during backups and restores, where the data channel is established from a client's outgoing address to the server.
The interface used for outgoing communication is up to Windows. By default, the first interface that becomes active in Windows is the one NetVault will use for outgoing communication.
Symptoms:
A client initiates outgoing communication to the server over an IP address that is barred or not set to preferred status.
