Bind Wildfly 11 to 2 network interfaces

[arkadyz]

Hello, team

I have a Wildfly11 machine with 3 network interfaces, let's say IP1, IP2, and IP3.

All IPs are visible to my client machines.

Is there a way to configure my Wildfly to answer ejb/jms requests to the IP1 and IP2 but not to IP3 ?

I tried with "-b" option but didn't find a way to put list of IPs.  0.0.0.0 is not good for me.

May be it is possible via changing standalone.xml ?

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,

Arkady

If you haven't modified the standalone.xml, there's a section towards the very bottom that defines the different interfaces that can be used to access either the "public" or "management" functions of wildfly.  It looks like this:

<interfaces>
    
<interface name="management">
        
<inet-address value="${jboss.bind.address.management:127.0.0.1}"/>
    
</interface>
    
<interface name="public">
        
<inet-address value="${jboss.bind.address:127.0.0.1}"/>
    
</interface>

</interfaces>

According to the schema "wildfly-config_5_0.xsd", it looks like you can insert multiple "inet-address" elements into each interface.  in this case, since you are wanting allow multiple interfaces to handle ejb and jms requests, you would update the "public" interface to be something like:

<interface name="public">
    <inet-address value="ip1"/>
    <inet-address value="ip2"/>
</interface>

The "${jboss.bind.address:127.0.0.1}" syntax in the default means to use the value of the jboss.bind.address system parameter if it's defined, otherwise use localhost.

Hi, Greg

It doesn't work. Wildfly takes only one of IPs.

I think you need something like

<interface name="public">

    <any>

        <inet-address value="ip1"/>

        <inet-address value="ip2"/>

    </any>

</interface>

Edit: actually trying above I'm not sure if it's possible to bind to two ip addresses. You can bind to single ip or all. Perhaps you can bridge interfaces together.

Hi, Martin

This is also not working. May be you are right, it is impossible.
