Can we connect single server to the multiple switches?

Hello Team,
I want to redesign the Client network in order to provide network availability and fail over. I have designed attached diagram. I have doubt if we can connect a server having multiple NICs to different uplink switches.
let say NIC1-2 is connected to Uplink Switch1 and NIC3-4 is connected to uplink Switch2. I want to do this so that if uplink switch1 dies then still server would be accessible via switch2.
is there would be any problem like mac address flapping? also, I know we can configure NIC teaming but i am not too sure how that would be helpful with my attached setup.
can you guys please look at the attached diagram and provide me your inputs?
Thanks for response.

It depends on what the server's multiple interfaces support.

Can we connect single Web role to multiple Azure VPN

We have a one cloud service as Web role and created two Azure Virtual Networks. Now we have to connect this service with both Azure VPNs.So can we add two <VirtualNetworkSite> under the <NetworkConfiguration> node. like below configuration:
<NetworkConfiguration>
<VirtualNetworkSitename="myazure-vnet1"/>
<VirtualNetworkSite name="myazure-vnet2"/>
<AddressAssignments>
<InstanceAddress roleName="MyMvcWebRole">
<Subnets>
<Subnet name="MainSubnet"/>
</Subnets>
</InstanceAddress>
</AddressAssignments>
</NetworkConfiguration>
Can somebody provide the Answer? Thanks.

Hi Hema,
I'm afraid multiple VNETs for a single web role (Dual NICs) is not possible.
Multiple NICs are only supported in VMs.
You could refer the following link for details:

Can't connect to server with the sidebar.

Hi,
I have a problem with my OS X 10.5.8 Server. I just can't connect to my shared folders with the finder's sidebar. when i use the workaround with "apple+k" it works absolutely fine.
The other thing is, that when the open directory user has the permission to administer the server he can still connect with the sidebar.
Does anybody know what the problem might be?
Best Regards
Dan

we have a similar problem at our office. Occasionally we cant connect to shared items in the sidebar of Finder. If an alias was set in "places" of the sidebar or on the right side of the separator on the dock, you can still connect, even though the connection to a shared item fails.
"apple K" does not work, but I may be using the wrong address to connect
Restart of server and workstation seems to solve this problem.
Server OS is 10.4.11, and workstation OS is 10.5.6
I'm stumped.

Hi There Linc Davis,
Wow, you are the best.
Yip this is what the website looks like. Great job Linc Davis.
Not surprised that the "Shop" tab is missing. Darn.
Well can you try to access it's "sister" website: astralmusic.com and astralmusicshop.com?
Since you are awesome with the "Flash" can you investigate if this website has a issue withis this "Flash" too?
Please Linc Davis

I HAVE THE NEW VERSION OF FIREFOX. I LOVE TO PLAY THE POGO GAMES , I CAN NOT CONNECT TO SERVER. A MESSAGE WOULD APPEAR SAYING LOST CONNECTION. WHAT IS THE PROBLEM?

I CAN GET INTO THE POGO WEB SITE, BUT CAN NOT LOAD THE GAMES. THE GAME WILL CLOSE AND A MESSAGE WILL APPEAR CAN NOT CONNECT TO SERVER. IT GIVE YOU OTHER OPTIONS, COULD BE BEHIND PROXY OR FIREWALL., MAY BE TO BUSY, PLEASE TRY AGAIN. NONE OF THEM SEEM TO BE THE PROBLEM.HELPPPPPPPPPPPPP

Which "new version"? Websites think you are using Firefox 3.0.19, which is no longer supported. Maybe your User Agent is "stuck" on that old version?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_Agent
type '''about:config''' in the URL bar and hit Enter <br />
''If you see the warning, you can confirm that you want to access that page.'' <br />
Filter = '''general.useragent.''' <br />
Right-click the preferences that are '''bold''', one line at a time, and select '''''Reset'''''. <br />
Then restart Firefox

I was wondering if there's a way to connect to my work server from my home iMac i7. I can't seem to get Share Screen to work. I have tried connecting to server using the vnc but doesn't work.

The easiest way would be to use Back to My Mac, but that will only work if the server is a Mac running OS X 10.7 or later and you have the cooperation of the network administrator.

I have the same problem with my 3rd gen Apple TV. I can preview iTunes movies, stream from my Mac, Airplay from my other devices but I cannot rent a movie on iTunes. Every time I try I get "Can't connect to ITunes" and "Unable to sign in". Had technical support review the problem over the phone and they agreed to send me a new one. Same problem. Interestingly enough my 2nd gen Apple TV works just fine.

I know this is old now but since the update i can't get into icloud on my phone it keeps asking me to check t & c's and now no emails. Can't connect to server. I have 4S please help :-(

Hi Kellyssi,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If you're being asked repeatedly to check terms and conditions, try restarting and then resetting your iPhone:

Safari and Youtube can't connect to server

Safari and Youtube can't connect to server but I can use iTunes online store. Isn't that strange? Any ideas why?
I use static ip-adresses on my home network with a WEP 128bit security. I have entered all configuration that I enter under tcp/ip properties on my but there is one property on the touch that I don't recognise from my PC and that is someting that translated could be named "Search Domains". It's the last property under the static wireless config tab.

I have no idea what I am doing... but once i changed the proxy (HTTP) my life is just miserable, no sites open, like its really annoying. Do you know how to fix it.

Earthlink Servers -- "can't connect to server"

Recently (the last couple of weeks) Safari have been displaying the message "can't connect to server" when trying to access certain pages.
Here are the particulars:
This only happens with Safari, not with any other browser (netscape, firefox, explorer) on my Mac or my PC.
The problem is intermittent -- sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Both times when I've called apple tech support (and they tried to reproduce the problem, it was working)
The problem only exists with Earthlink's homepages ...any page that has the url "home.earthlink.net/~whatever. So this rules out any particular page or site ...the problems (for me) seems confined to Earthlink homepage servers.
This happens whether logged on via dial-up, or using DSL ethernet (these two are via my isp, earthlink) ...or when using my neighbor's wireless connection via Comcast. So the problem is not unique to the ISP.
Here's the puzzling part. When the problem does exist, I can access the page by typing www. in from of the home.earthlink.... and the page loads. When the problem does not exits and the www. is placed in front of the url, Safari displays the "can't connect to server" message (???).
Also, during these intermittent periods when it doesn't work, any other pages I have that call upon graphics with a SRC url of home.earthlink.... the graphics don't display.
Lastly, my tracking program has shown (1) a significant drop in the pages accessed with Safari, (2) the pages that are accessed with Safari are occasionally accessed with the www.home.earthlink.... url, so this is obviously happening to other safari users.
For my part, I've done all the usual stuff, checked here for similar reports, reset Safari and trashed all the prefs. No changes.
Apple tech seems to think this is an Earthlink Server problem. Earthlink tech acknowledges no such problem and feels it's Safari's problem. ...and I'm caught in the middle Hrmpf!!!
Any thoughts would be much appreciated.
I'm using OS 10.3.9 with Safari 1.3.2
"home.earthlink.net/~skinesscentuals" -- one of the affected sites
iBook G4 1.33 w/Mac OS X (10.3.9) w/768 MB
Dell Pent III w/WinXP (SP2) w384 MB

Let's try it the other way around. Open Network Preferences and open the lock.
Set up a new location, I call it "verizon" because the DNS nums will be theirs, available to all. Enter as 2 separate lines
4.2.2.2
4.2.2.1
Proxies have been a problem so make sure you have none unless you really need them.
Apply now. Good luck.
Do a forum search on "open dns" for 2 more servers to get their nums. I can't see them as that is what I am currently running and don't want to mess with it.

Can we connect single server to the multiple switches?
