Management Address¶
Harvester provides a fixed virtual IP (VIP) as the management address. Users can see the management address on the console dashboard after installation.
Usages¶
The management address has two usages.
-
Allow users to access the Harvester UI via
https
protocol. -
Used by the other nodes to join the cluster.
Configure VIP¶
Users can specify the VIP during installation. It can either be configured via DHCP or assigned a static one.
Note: In PXE boot, Harvester does not support setting the VIP via DHCP. It will be addressed in the next release. Issue: https://github.com/harvester/harvester/issues/1410
