Guest rajan.regmi@gmail.com Posted July 4, 2007 Posted July 4, 2007 Terminal Server WAN NIC goes to sleep mode. I have TS with Win 2003 SP2. It has 2 NIC Intel PRO/1000 one connects to Cisco ADSL router and other to a hub. The NIC that connects to Cisco (WAN) it is natted to allow RDC on to it. LAN NIC configuration IP: 192.168.0.100 SM: 255.255.255.0 DG: 192.168.0.200 (which is DC) DNS: 192.168.0.200 WAN NIC configuration IP: 10.10.10.3 SM: 255.255.0.0 DG: 10.10.10.1 (which is CISCO) DNS: 192.168.0.200 (which is DC) Time to time WAN nic goes to sleep and every one is kicked out from the connection, to get the user back I have to disable the WAN connection and enable it again. This problem happens 2-3 times a day. I have checked the power management of the nic, updated the latest nic drivers and also done all the latest MS updates but no luck. Any solution? Thanks Rajan
Guest Anthony Posted July 4, 2007 Posted July 4, 2007 Re: Terminal Server WAN NIC goes to sleep mode. Two default gateways is a contradiction in terms. If you want to have two NICS you should set a default gateway on your WAN interface and a static route to your LAN. A better solution altogether is to redesign your topology. You are not securing the LAN as it is, because if the TS is compromised it has access to the LAN. - You can put the servers on the same LAN, and use VPN or even RDP to connect - Or with more cost you can create a separate DMZ for the TS, with no access through to the LAN.
