Hi Team,
I am planning to configure a dedicated NIC for SQL 2014 Always on AG Traffic
Our Primary Server is a failover cluster instance and secondary is a standalone SQL Instance (SQL FCI for HA FC + AG for DR)
- Could anyone pls. share any good article that would help to achieve this?
- Our Nodes have 2 NICs as of now, 1 for Public and another for heartbeat between nodes (only communication happened between nodes) , Once we have 3 NICs on all nodes, what kind of IP address it should have ? Public or private (only nodes will communicate)?
My understanding is, this NIC need to have same IP range and should communicate as public network?
And if NIC will be dedicated for AG, this NIC will have a public IP address since listener will also communicate on this only or need to be a kind of heartbeat (only WSFC nodes would communicate)?
any pointers will be appreciated.
Regards
