We need your expertise to help us clarify the NLB configuration on our 5k or 7k switches. We are in the process of migration our email exchange servers from 2003 to 2010. We are implementing Microsoft NLB (network load balancing) on our CAS servers (Client Access servers). These two server are VM guest machines .Their physical VMware hosts are directly connected to 2k switches on port eth101/1/33-36. Our exchange consultant insisted us to add the following command into either 5k or 7k to allow NLB multicast traffic passing through to all end users hosts.
Question#1 Am I missing anything here that is stopping me from entering these commands?
Question#2: Since my computer is connected via a static ip address and via Vlan1 port. I am able to ping NBL cluster host Ip address 10.156.2.132 but nobody else who are on other VLANs (subnets) 101,102,103,104,105 and vlan 50 (wireless subnet).
I am about to add the following command to 5k switch, but want to know if these commands might make it work.
