Have you specified the network you want to utilize in BEWS defaults or the backup job? <br />
If not refer to the following <br />
Changing the backup network and security options for a job \<br />

<br />
Even after selecting the preferred NIC if it falls back to the &quot;USE ANY AVAILABLE &quot;&nbsp;option then you are witnessing a known defect in BEWS 11 D <br />
<br />
<br />
Changes to the Default Network Interface setting from &quot;Use any available Network &nbsp;Interface&quot; to a Preferred Network Interface Card selection will not stay &nbsp;selected. <br />

I have a dell server with two nics, one intel 100mb and one intel 1000mb. I am using Backupexec 11D sp3. I want buexec to only use the 1000mb NIC, it only seems to use the 100mb nic. I am using task manager in windows to monitor the nics and the only one with any traffic is the slower one. Any ideas would be appreciated.<br />

The term "Backup" means the methods and processes involved to copy computer data (system data as well as application data) to media other than the ones where the data originally live (disk, tape, optical, cloud). "Restore" in turn means the methods and processes involved in data recovery, i. e., bringing back copied computer data to their original location. Backup/Restore primarily serves as a means of protection against data loss, be it due to disaster, corruption or sabotage. It can also be used for recovering data from an earlier point in time and even for cloning machines or applications. There is a wide variety of backup/restore software available, from expensive commercial products to free or open source tools.
