is there a way to bind master interface to multiple ip?

[Zheng Liu]

I have a salt master with 30+ minions set up in one local network. The master is bound to the local ip. Now I need to setup a few additional servers in a separate LAN. I would like to share the master. However, I can't use wild card '*' in the master config, for the interface binding. I have to change the binding to external ip, restart the master to server the external minion. Is there way that I can have both local and external minions co-exist? Like allowing the master to listen on multiple interfaces?

thanks,

Zheng

Why don't you let it listen on 0.0.0.0 (the default) and block access
from source networks you don't want using iptables? Salt isn't
currently capable of listening on multiple interfaces unless you use
0.0.0.0.

Lemme look into this, there should be a way to do this cleanly. But for now I would just bind it to the default, 0.0.0.0 - or all interfaces

Or set syndic with another master, that is listening on external ip only?

Thanks everyone for the suggestion. I didn't know of the 0.0.0.0
option, so I always bind to a particular ip. I think it is the best
solution for me now.

thanks,
Zheng
