Hostname specifies a hostname.
In-Path IP Address specifies the in-path IP address for the neighbor SteelHead. When you define a neighbor, you must specify the appliance in-path IP address, not the primary IP address.

• Multiple interface support must be selected.
• The IPv6 Connection Forwarding check box must be selected in the Connection Forwarding Settings area of this page
Port specifies the in-path port for the neighbor SteelHead. The default port is 7850.
Additional IP Addresses adds a neighbor SteelHead to the neighbor list. IPv6 addresses are allowed if this SteelHead and the neighbor SteelHeads are running RiOS 9.6 or later and the IPv6 Connection Forwarding check box is selected.
To modify the neighbor properties, select the IP address of the neighbor and complete the configuration.
