Don't play silly buggers with your network configuration.

Subject: [isalist] ISA dial-up question
http://www.ISAserver.org
Yes I USE DIAL-UP. (grin)
I have a 4Meg DSL connection which uses PPPoE, thus I use dial-up on my
ISA 2004 Server. My question is since PPPoE sits on top of the External
NIC as it own layer which it gets its own IP and not the NIC can I
assign a bogus IP to the NIC without it affecting ISA server?
The reason for doing this is simple. Since the NIC doesn't obtain an IP
since SP1 if the NIC can not get an IP address it will flag the
connection with a yellow "!" sign, and attempt again and again to try
and get an IP. Well my logs are filling up with "!" errors how the NIC
wasn't able to obtain an IP address. :(
When doing the same scenario on a workstation with the DSL connection
(not going through a cable/dsl router) you can add an NIC to the card
and it doesn't do anything to effect the net, but since this ISA I
figure I would ask before messing with it.
Thanks
Andrew
