Configuring Dual Network Cards on Server Running Windows Server 2003

by stoli1983 . Updated 15 years, 10 months ago

Hi all,

Have a small issue… im trying to configure a “redundant server, on redundant Lan” system.

basically each server has two network cards on different subnets….
Card one Server 1 10.193.0.10 (255.255.0.0) card two Server 1 10.193.1.10 (255.255.0.0)
card one server 2 10.193.0.11 (255.255.0.0)
card two server 2 10.193.1.11 (255.255.0.0)

each card is connected a switch (one on the x.x.0.x network, the other on x.x.1.x network)
The switches also have a PLC (programmable logic controller) with 2 ethernet cards (basically two network cards) connected to them.

PLC IP address 1 10.193.0.15, connected to x.x.0.x switch
PLC IP address 2 10.193.1.15, connected to x.x.1.x switch

when i try and ping 10.193.0.15 from the server, i dont get any respone.. when i ping 10.193.1.15 i get the usual response, obviously one card has preference over the other.

so my question is, is there a way to configure the two network cards in the server to send/recieve traffic at the same time??
