Installation Tasks: Web Conferencing
The two NICs act together to handle traffic
•
for both IP addresses; one NIC receives
inbound traffic, both NICs send outbound
traffic.
If either NIC fails, the other NIC can take
•
over.
We strongly recommend this configuration if
•
the Web Conferencing server is connected to
a 100 MB/sec. network.
• This configuration is available only for HP
MCS server models.
To configure this option, perform the
•
Configure NIC Teaming on the Cisco MCS
Server (HP Models Only)" procedure on
