I've just been reading the following documentation:

http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/JBoss_Enterprise_Web_Platform/5/html/Administration_And_Configuration_Guide/jgroups-other.html#id1374042

Specifically:

"Bind services to one interface and JGroups to another

     Specifically setting the system property with -D overrides the value specified by -b:     

     ./run.sh -b 10.0.0.100 -Djgroups.bind_addr=192.168.1.100 -c production    

     The code here is a common usage pattern. It places client traffic on one network and intra-cluster traffic on another. "

What I would actually like to do, is use one IP for production communication (i.e. client connections, inter-cluster traffic, etc) and another for administration access (i.e. JBoss web admin console, JMX console, etc).

Is this a valid use case for the settings discussed in the above section and if so, how would I go about it?

I'm using JBoss AS v.5.0.1.

Many thanks in advance for any advice.
