Veritas NetBackup™ Administrator's Guide, Volume I

Configuration that restricts NetBackup to one set of addresses

Figure: Only network selection with the same source binding address configures NetBackup to use only the specified range of destination addresses, and the allowed source addresses must also be in the same range. The only exception is if other directives with larger subnets are present, or with equal-length subnets but ordered above this one.

Figure: Only network selection with the same source binding address

Only network selection with the same source binding address

A host with the Only directive configured considers only those target addresses in the 192.168.100.0 subnet. Additionally, source binding to the local interface must be done on the 192.168.100.0 subnet.
