Microsoft 2008 R2 NLB Multicast - Accessing over subnets ?
Posted on 2016-07-29
Hi Microsoft NLB Gurus,
We have Microsoft 2008 R2 NLB multicast cluster running on VMware. And each host has single interface and we have a problem accessing the virtual IP over the subnet.
1. Adding static ARP entries would not be possible.
2. https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/960916 is just for Windows 2008 not for WIndows 2008 R2
3. We do not want to go with Unicast at this stage
Forwarding enable will fix this issue ?
But most of readings on the Internet recommends above command for the environment which has two interfaces and when NLB interface dose not have a gateway IP.
So, what would be the fix for this ?

netsh interface ipv4 set interface "NLB NIC" forwarding=enabled
