Step 3. Configure Network Settings

At the Networks step of the wizard, choose a network to which the worker VM will be connected:

1. Click Add.
2. In the Network Settings window, do the following:

1. Use the Network and Description fields to select the necessary network and to provide a description for this network connection.

For a network to be displayed in the list of available networks, it must be configured in the virtual environment as described in Citrix XenServer documentation and XCP-ng documentation.

2. If DHCP is enabled in the selected network, the IP address of the worker VM will be obtained automatically. If DHCP is disabled in the selected network or if you want to specify an IP address manually, select the Use the following IP address option and enter the necessary IP address, subnet mask and default gateway.
3. Click OK.

3. Repeat steps 1-2 to add more network interfaces and specify the network order using the Up and Down buttons. For more information on multi-network configuration, see Configuring Multiple Networks.
4. If DHCP is enabled in any network to which the worker will be connected, DNS settings of the worker can be obtained automatically. To configure DNS settings manually, click Obtain automatically and do the following in the DNS Server Settings window:

1. Select the Use the following DNS server address option.
2. Enter the IP addresses of the preferred and alternate DNS servers.
3. Click OK.

Configuring Internet Proxy for Updates

To check for available package updates for the worker, Veeam Backup & Replication automatically connects to Veeam repositories over the internet. If the worker is not connected to the internet, Veeam Backup & Replication uses backup server update settings to obtain the configuration of an internet proxy that provides access to the necessary repositories. However, you can enter specific internet proxy settings that will be used for the current worker. To do that, click Advanced and do the following in the Advanced Settings window:

1. From the Internet proxy drop-down list, select Use custom settings.
2. In the Host field, enter a DNS name or an IPv4 address of the internet proxy.
3. In the Port field, enter the port used on the internet proxy for HTTP or HTTPS connections.
4. If your internet proxy requires authentication, select the Use authentication check box, and select credentials of the account configured on the proxy to access the internet.

For credentials to be displayed in the Credentials list, they must be added to the Credentials Manager as described in section Standard Accounts. If you have not added the necessary credentials to the Credentials Manager beforehand, you can do this without closing the wizard.
