Hi folks,

i want to know if it is possible to tell unraid to use only a certain NIC.

Reason:

I want that plex is using only one NIC (Intel Pro 1000GT eth0) to stream movies.

If this is possible/configurable, please give me a hint.

Thanks a lot

Bump - has someone at least an idea?

Did you disable bonding under network settings?

Make eth0 and eth1 separate interfaces (not bonded).

Both eth0 and eth1 must have the bridge function enabled.

eth0 is your management interface and has either a fixed IP or dynamic IP assigned

eth1 is going to be the interface for your containers, it can have either a fixed or dynamic IP assignment (similar to eth0)

 

Under Docker settings unselect br0 and select br1. It is recommended to set a DHCP pool which does not conflict with the DHCP range of your router.

If you want the server to be able to talk to containers, then enable the setting "Host access to custom networks"

 

In the container settings, choose custom network br1 and optionally set a fixed address.
