[isapros] Re: ISA Server 2004 may stop responding when IP addresses from multiple subnets are bound to the same adaptor

The KB implies that these are network IDs that are different from the
local interface's network ID. That's the problem with the KB.

For example, scenario 1:

NetID 1: 10.0.1.0/24
NetID 2: 10.0.2.0/24

ISA interface on Network ID:
NetID 3: 10.0.3.0/16

In this scenario, the remote networks are on the same network ID as the
local ISA firewall's interface. Of course, the remote networks see the
ISA firewall's local interface as being on a different network ID, so a
router must be interposed.

For example, scenario 2:

NetID 1: 172.16.1.0/24
NetID 2: 192.168.1.0/24

ISA interface on network ID:
NetID 3: 10.0.3.0/24

In this scenario, would you consider it valid to bind IP address
192.168.1.1 to the ISA firewall interface on network ID 10.0.3.0?

Scenario 2 is what the KB article implies.

That's why they need to think about giving hard core examples in these
articles, otherwise they just contributed to the FUD.
