Re: Using multiple network cards and IP addresses in one machine

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry

Hi Phillip;

Understood. The problem is that I need two FTP sites running on that
machine. That's what originally prompted me to enable both NICs. The web
publishing side seems less problematic then the FTP side - no doubt due to
the limitations of the protocol.

At any rate, that's the actual reason for activating both NIC's in the
server. What to do now?

Thanks everyone ~ I'm learning a lot in this thread :-)

What I've got is a web server behind ISA 2004 and that server has two
NICs
and multiple sites on it. That's the reason for different IP addresses
in
the same subnet - each is for a different site.

Your description of the problems caused by this is exactly what I'm
seeing
:-) In a case like this how would you do it - put the other NIC on a
different subnet?

You don't put it on a different subnet in this case.
You don't use two nics to start with.
You assign all the IP#s from the same subnet on the same Nic.

With ISA you can publish all those sites using one IP# and one port.
Sites
are distinguished by the URL that is used.
