How many NICs can Astaro handle?

Hi folks,

simple question: How many NICs can Astaro handle. Or is there a limit?

I am thinking about of reinstalling Astaro and adding as much virtual NICs as possible just in case for any eventuality.

Hope somebody can tell me this.
Thanks in advice,
Albeck

The only thing that you need to check is the sorting order of the NICs, as it can change after adding/removing NICs.

And that's the point why I would like to add those additional NICs at the beginning. Because for example, at the moment I have 3 NICs attached to my Hyper-V Astaro, now I want to add 3 additional NICs, reboot the Machine and in the worst case all 3 old NICs could be resorted to the new NICs and I would not be able to acces the Webadmin anymore. Everything would have changed and no interface would work correctly anymore.

That is the problem that i want to overcome with adding reserve NICs as much as possible before the installation.

Thanks so far, Albeck
