it works with D-Link 580TX quad-port, with Pyramid three-port Intel based NIC and some more. Intel based cards are always a good choice since Intel maintains own Linux drivers.
and when i restore my v 4.25 back up, some interface are shown as unresolved in the definition networks, i am thinkin about recreate all from scratch in v 5.1 but this is a very big works because i have got about 800 static route and nearly the same snat rules.
Do you have a suitable solution to resolve this problem ?
do I understand you right, that your Interfaces are all found by Astaro but that the allocation of the Interfaces is now different compared to your old installation?
I had the same Problem when we migrated our FW from Supermicro-Boards to IBM x345. What I did, was to edit manually the file /etc/wfe/conf/itf.conf through the local console. You have to try out which Interface belongs to what port and then must correct the allocation in that file mentioned above. After rebooting the names used in Webadmin should point to the right interfaces. The rules and everything are set by referencing the symbolic Names.
I am trying to migrate from v4 to v5 using the same hardware but when i restore my backup in the definition networks there is always interfaces which are marked as [unresolved] but in the network / interface the interfaces are up with a good IP address.
you can ignore this. I think this problem is related to IRQ sharing. On the latest version Astaro tuned the display a little bit. You could try to install the SMP kernel it gives you more interrupts.
in which WebAdmin section except interface configuration and DNS proxy are you able to assign a rule to an interface? Nowhere, since Astaro has only address related rules and you have no choice to select that a rule applies to a certain interface only. In some configurations it would be really good to have this option but it is good enough for most scenarios. So again, it is a display issue only - the interfaces work as they are supposed to.
