NLB in TMG 2010 with
-
Monday, February 04, 2013 2:59 PM
Hello,
We have 2 Fujitsu machines - Each server should work as Microsoft TMG 2010,
configured as a TMG array with NLB
When we use latest FSC Intel driver for the NIC the TMG NLB array do not
function and can not start.
Both modes fail - unicast as well multicast.
Example:
Log Name: System
Source: Microsoft-Windows-NLB
Event ID: 53
Level: Error
Description:
NLB cluster [0.0.0.0]: NLB will not attach to adapter
'{BA7...........807C9}' because it does not support
dynamic changing of its MAC address. Replace the network adapter with
one which supports that capability.
When we use the out of the box Windows Server 2008 R2 Microsoft driver for
the Intel NIC all works ok.
Is a usage of the Microsoft out of the box drivers supported on this TMG NLB configuration? Is there another solution`?Thanks - Katrin

Hi,
is it possible to give the NIC a static MAC address? Id yes try to change the MAC address to a fixed MAC address

Looks like you will have to change the network adapter.

Tanks for the feedback.
We are aware of the technet link and that NIC owner has to been contacted. I saw also a thread at Intel Forum, where same issue for Unicast is described, but not answered.
I will check if a static MAC address is usable.
What we need to know is if usage of onboard drivers are supported in that configuration.
Thanks - katrin
