Detect new interface/nic without reboot

Hi,

We run Sophos UTM on a vSphere VM, if we add a new NIC/interface in vSphere you have to reboot the UTM to see the new interface. Is there a way of detecting it with a Linux command, so i don't have to reboot?

Thanks,

Freek

You may try to run "setitfhw.plx". May I ask why reboot is not an option for hardware changes like this?

Thanks, I will try that in our test environment. The problem is that we host several webapps behind this firewall, we want to create an active/passive cluster to avoid having problems with reboots in the future. For now a reboot is not conveniant, because we have to inform each customer, they have downtime etc...
