Recommendations to force outgoing network traffic from NLB Virtual IP instead of individual Node IP


hi,

we have new setup 2 node nlb on windows server 2012 r2 website hosted in iis in active/active mode. incoming requests there no issues have allowed nlb vip clients there schedules web servers ftp connection ftp server / smtp connection smtp server etc request using individual nlb node ip.

appreciate expert advice/recommendations if should change ip order (move vip on top outgoing traffic can use vip source ip) have vip source ip. if not use nlb vip outgoing ip, have create individual connections destinations & incase use vip source ip, there 1 source outgoing & no need maintain outgoing connection individual node ip.

hi dhirajharitwal,

base on understanding, want know if use virtual ip of cluster visit other servers.

as far know, we couldn't.

although we could use virtual ip visit cluster, when transfer packets, still use physical ip addresses communicate. so, changing ip order with no help. 

best regards,

anne
