How to Configure the Database Server Network Adapters

  • Artigo

Each database server has one or two network adapters depending on the configuration of your network. The network settings that you use to configure the network adapters are in Configuring Network Settings for the Enterprise Deployment if you are building an enterprise deployment or Configuring Network Settings for the Base Deployment if you are building a base deployment.

Follow these steps to configure the network adapters and use the settings that were discussed earlier to configure your network adapters.

To configure the network adapter on the database servers for Windows Server 2003

  1. On the desktop, right-click My Network Places, and then click Properties.

  2. In the Network and Dial-up Connections window, right-click Local Area Connection, and then click Rename.

  3. Type a name for the connection, for example, Domain Connection, that makes it easy to identify, and then press ENTER. This name will be referred to as <adapter name> from this point on.

  4. Right-click <adapter name>, and then click Properties.

  5. In the <adapter name>Properties dialog box, select the following components:

    Install?

    Component

    No

    Client for Microsoft Networks.

    No

    Network Load Balancing.

    No

    For information about the specific IP address settings, see Configuring Network Settings for the Enterprise Deployment and Configuring Network Settings for the Base Deployment.

  8. Click Advanced.

  9. In the Advanced TCP/IP settings dialog box, on the WINS tab, select Disable NetBIOS over TCP/IP, and then click OK.

  10. If a dialog box appears that states that the computer has an empty Primary WINS address, click Yes.
