setting up 2 network cards


Recommended Posts

Posted

This is a pretty basic question but I want to find out before I try it.

 

I am setting up a new windows 2003 server as an exchange server and want to

run 2 network cards. One connected to the Router of my new T-1 line and the

2nd connected to my current LAN network. Will this work and if so is there

any knowledge base articles based on this setup. Thanks in advance.

Hi Andy,

 

Why do you want to connect the Exchange server with two NIC, what is it

that you want to archive?

 

Anyway, it will work, but I have to configure the T-1 to be the primary NIC.

Re: setting up 2 network cards

 

I have 10 offices throughout my network and about 20 remote users. The remote

users will be using the email only portion of exchange. 9 of the 10 offices

will be connecting through the T-1 for the public folders, messaging, email

etc...i want the 10th office where the exchange server will be located to use

the exchange features through the LAN, not through the T-1.
