"HP Procurve" - what?
That's a product line, not a switch model.
Also, you don't need to use a hub; a L2 switch generally works just fine.
The problem is when the switch tries to be too smart about L3 and ends up being
too smart for its own good.

Subject: [isalist] Network Load Balancing And Network Hardware Recomendations
Hello,
This is possible a little off topic.
We currently use Windows Network Load Balancing for our Exchange and ISA
servers. Right now to avoid problems with our network switches I have a hub
between the NLB hosts and our Network Switches. This connection is therefore
limited to 100MB ½ duplex connections.
I have new hardware coming in that I need to use NLB on and I would like to
have an optimal configuration. I have taken a look at Microsoft KB 192602 and
am looking for further recommendations. Our network switches are HP Procurve.
Thanks
Bill
