Procurve 2910al - Multicast configuration with Microsoft NLB

Hi !

 

we are using 4 Sw 2910al all upgraded to Fw 14.49 so they could support multicast by enabling the command "ip arp-multicast replies".

 

We have 1 virtual Server (VMware plateform) on each site installed as MS Exchange 2010 Node.

NLB is configured with a virtual Ethernet Card shared by both Vservers with a defined MAC address and an IP address too. 

 

The question is: is it enough to enable the command (ip arp-multicast replies) on each server so they could rely the multicast address ? Is there another command to performe to specify the Vlan on which the IP address is communicating or explicitely adding the IP and the MAC addresses to the arp table ?

 

Thanks for your help and feedback !
