You have two servers that run Windows Server 2016.
You plan to create a Network Load Balancing (NLB) cluster that will contain both servers.
You need to configure the network cards on the servers for the planned NLB configuration.
Solution: You configure the network cards to be on the same subnet and to have static IP addresses. You configure the cluster to use multicast.
Does this meet the goal?
Answer : A
Explanation:
Following are the hardware requirements to run an NLB cluster.
-> All hosts in the cluster must reside on the same subnet.
-> There is no restriction on the number of network adapters on each host, and different hosts can have a different number of adapters.
-> Within each cluster, all network adapters must be either multicast or unicast. NLB does not support a mixed environment of multicast and unicast within a single cluster.
-> If you use the unicast mode, the network adapter that is used to handle client-to-cluster traffic must support changing its media access control (MAC) address.
Following are the software requirements to run an NLB cluster.
-> Only TCP/IP can be used on the adapter for which NLB is enabled on each host. Do not add any other protocols (for example, IPX) to this adapter.
-> The IP addresses of the servers in the cluster must be static.

You plan to create a Network Load Balancing (NLB) cluster that will contain both servers.
You need to configure the network cards on the servers for the planned NLB configuration.
Solution: You configure the network cards to be on the same subnet and to have dynamic IP addresses. You configure the cluster to use multicast.
Does this meet the goal?
