Hi,

What is the result of the 'tracert' to your server? Possibly something is blocking the traffic.

<div>
<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
i have my isp connection coming into an unmanaged switch. the switch connected to my firewall, and my bomgar box. users could connect to my terminal servers via the web. sometime this weekend the switch siezed and i replaced it with another unmangaed switch. &nbsp;now users that are outside of the network cannot connect to the Terminal servers. nothings changed on the firewall. the switch is a layer two device and its unmanaged. does anyone have some insight into this.

Network connectivity issue

A switch is a device that filters and forwards packets of data between LAN segments. Switches operate at the data link layer or the network layer of the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) Reference Model and therefore support any packet protocol. LANs that use switches to join segments are called switched LANs or, in the case of Ethernet networks, switched Ethernet LANs. A hub is a connection point for devices in a network. Hubs are commonly used to connect segments of a LAN. A hub contains multiple ports; when a packet arrives at one port, it is copied to the other ports so that all segments of the LAN can see all packets.

Switches / Hubs

Networking is the process of connecting computing devices, peripherals and terminals together through a system that uses wiring, cabling or radio waves that enable their users to communicate, share information and interact over distances. Often associated are issues regarding operating systems, hardware and equipment, cloud and virtual networking, protocols, architecture, storage and management.
