How do I determine the "rfc 1918 internal ip bound to your vserver." |
I wrote this some time ago.
An RFC1918 IP is an ip that follows the RFC1918 standard. (You'd do well to read the RFC, please google for it.) Earlier I indicated its best to choose some other RFC1918 IP for internal operations, since we cant use 127.0.0.1 (since thats bound to the vserver host), and we dont want some of our ports out on open internet IPs or possibly even open to internal office networks (which we'd then have to firewall and whatnot). I cant tell you what to choose out of the ranges, thats up to you, you may well have other 1918 networks in your topology, so you have to pick an appropriate one that wont conflict with the rest of your network (or open up your zimbra internal services to your network, though that's not such a huge risk as opening it up to the whole internet).
