| Network Adapters
The network adapters used in the Microsoft lab servers were standard server-class network adapters. At the Demartek lab, three different types of network adapters were used, including the standard network adapters, advanced server-class network adapters and TCP Offload server-class network adapters.
Network Switches
Both labs used Gigabit switches. The Microsoft lab used a NetGear GS108 unmanaged, 8-port switch. The Demartek lab used a NetGear GS724T smart-switch with 24 ports. Jumbo frames were enabled on the GS724T switch.
The deployment processes for this report were broken into several main steps.
In addition, special application scenarios were performed, including:
-
Configure Microsoft Exchange 2003 to use iSCSI storage
-
Configure Microsoft SQL Server 2005 to use iSCSI storage
-
Configure Microsoft Cluster Server to use iSCSI storage
