superloopy1 Posted May 8, 2020 Posted May 8, 2020 Guys, I now have a backup server which alongwith my main server both have 10G cards installed. Problem is I have no idea how to connect these two and setup the network connection within unRaid. I haven't got a switch but I do have two sfp cables which I'd like to join them up but it's the network settings that defeat me. I've also got a Windows server which would be the 'driver' for any backup activities across the network. Any assistance to getting this up and running, or a guide anywhere, specific to unraid would be appreciated. Ta! Quote
superloopy1 Posted May 8, 2020 Author Posted May 8, 2020 Yes, i had seen that, thanks. Â If i wanted to just connect the main to the backup server and use rsync to backup how do i 'priortize' the 10Gb connection over and above the bog standard eth0? Â Â Quote

You have to use the IP that corresponds to the 10GbE connection instead of the 1GbE connection, there is no prioritising as such. Edited May 9, 2020 by tjb_altf4 Quote
