DHCP: Splitting 10.10.120.0/23 between 2 servers, why exclude?

I understand that best practice is to split a scope between 2 dhcp servers on the same subnet.  We have a rather larger subnet 10.10.120.0/23
Server1 with pool 10.10.120.50-10.10.120.230
Server2 with pool 10.10.121.50-10.10.121.230
What's the purpose of expanding the scope in each server and configuring exclusions?  If each server have technically a different subnet, there will never be a conflict.  I would like to know if there's any benefit to expand the range and add exclusions.
Server1 with pool 10.10.120.50-10.10.121.230 exclude 10.10.120.231-10.10.121.230
Server2 with pool 10.10.120.50-10.10.121.230 exclude 10.10.120.50-10.10.121.49

If this is your config:
Server1 with pool 10.10.120.50-10.10.120.230 /23
Server2 with pool 10.10.121.50-10.10.121.230 /23
Then those are NOT different subnets.  Those are properly split DHCP scopes.
The subnet in this case is from 10.10.120.0 - 10.10.121.255 and that is what you're splitting.
For your second example:
Server1 with pool 10.10.120.50-10.10.121.230 exclude 10.10.120.231-10.10.121.230
Server2 with pool 10.10.120.50-10.10.121.230 exclude 10.10.120.50-10.10.121.49
This will give you problems:
1) The servers are offering the same IPs, they might even issue the same IP to two different devices because they won't know the other gave it away.
2) Server 1 has some exclusions that Server 2 won't know about.  That means Server 2 will issue IPs from Server 1's exclusion range.
3) This is not a recommended setup.

  • DHCP Split-Scope Configuration Wizard showing error "Not enough storage is available to process this command".

    Hi,
    I'm trying to split the DHCP scope between two Servers using the DHCP Split-Scope Configuration Wizard.
    Server one is a VM hosted on Hyper-V and is running Windows Small Business Server 2008 (I think this was previously SBS2003 and was upgraded at some point in time). The whole DHCP scope is currently configured on here.
    Server two is a VMware VM running Windows Server 2012 R2.
    I've installed the DHCP Server role on Server two (2012R2) and authorized the Server. When I launch DHCP Manager, add the SBS2008 Server in the MMC, right click the scope and choose "Advanced > Split-Scope", and then run through the wizard,
    I get as far as the "Percentage of Split" screen, and when I click next I get the error "Not enough storage is available to process this command".
    I've searched online for this particular error message and I've come across articles suggesting AV exclusions are not in place for the DHCP database and files, however in this case the exclusions are definitely in place and I've also tried completely disabling
    AV on both Servers and this made no difference to the outcome.
    I also came across articles suggesting the "IRPStackSize" registry DWORD needed to be added and set to a decimal value of 15 or larger. Again, I've tried adding this and rebooted both Servers but I get the same result.
    Anyway have any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Craig

    Hi Eve,
    No, there were no related events in the event logs. I've since tried splitting the DHCP scope manually but this did not work - the DHCP Server on the SBS would just stop and event: 1053 was displayed when trying to start the service again. I noticed
    that as soon as I de-activated DHCP Server on the 2012 Server then the DHCP Server on the SBS would start again.
    I then found the following in a TechNet article that would suggest I cannot have another DHCP Server on the network if using Small Business Server.
    Notes      
    A DHCP server running Microsoft Small Business Server will not operate if another DHCP server is active on its network.
    Detection of unauthorized DHCP servers requires the deployment of Active Directory Domain Services and the DHCP service. Other DHCP servers do not attempt to determine whether they are authorized by Active Directory Domain Services before offering IP address
    leases.

  • Cannot get Telnet to work between two servers on same subnet

    I need to test if communication is open on port 8444 between two servers.
    I installed telnet client on a Server 2008 R2 server and telnet server on a Server 2008 SP2 server.  I also manually started the Telnet service that was set to disabled on the SP2 server.  I disabled the Windows firewall on both servers.  They
    are both on the same subnet so they don't need to go through any routers and I can ping successfully.
    When I try to telnet to the remote server by typing telnet "ip address" 8444, I get an error that says "Could not open connection to host, on port 8444:  Connection failed.
    I tried other ports like port 80 and got the same error.
    What else is needed to get this to work?

    VMs have nothing to do with it, as long as there's network communication between the servers.
    As I said, there must be a service or application listening on that port for it to respond. For example, try this:
    C:\> telnet
    When the telnet prompt opens, type in:
    open mail.messaging.microsoft.com 25
    If it works, you should see this:
    220 CH1EHSMHS035.bigfish.com Microsoft ESMTP MAIL Service ready at Thu, 7 Feb 2013 00:57:33 +0000
    That means that Microsoft's mail servers are LISTENING on port 25 and it responded. And note, telnetting to port 25 is a non-default telnet port, because port 23 is the default telnet port. When you type in a space and then a port number, you're telling
    the telnet client to use that port.
    That is the SAME THING if some sort of application or service is listening on port 8444 on that other server you're trying to telnet to. If there is no app or service listening, it will just time out.
    And no, installing the TELNET service on that sercver will NOT answer to any port other than 23. The telnet service by default, uses TCP 23, unless you specify otherwise.
    So once again, what service or app on that server is supposed to be listening on 8444?

  • Port forwarding between two servers from Same subnet

     Hi,
    We have a Cisco ASA 5520 Version 8.4(3). There exists a site to site VPN tunnel between us and a client and the client sends us the data to our local host/server 10.x.x.20 on port 52944. So 10.x.x.20 gets data on port 52944. We want to forward this data to a test server 10.x.x.21( same subnet IP) on port 52945. so basically I want to forward traffic from 10.x.x.20:52944 to 10.x.x.21:52945.
    Is this possible. I am a new bee to the networking and still learning. Excuse me if this sounds silly. 
    I know we can add one more ACL in the VPN tunnel and add this test server IP in the ACL. but, then I have to ask the clinet to change their ACL too. I dont want to do this. So I want to wrok around it. Any help or suggestions is much appreciated.
    Thanks in advance :)

  • Jndi communication between app servers?

    Hi all,
    I'm quite familiar with J2EE and its communication architecture. In the past, I haven't had the need to communicate from one app server to another (just all web/applet clients to the central app server). But now I need to :)
    Is there a way to communicate (synchronously) between app servers on different machines that aren't clustered? Clustering is not a possibility.
    I know JMS is an option, but JMS is asyncrhonous. I also know you can't create server sockets in an app server because the J2EE spec disallows this approach, so forget about client/server communication via sockets.
    This would be my ideal solution:
    Server A does a jndi lookup for a bean on server B. Server A gets this reference and works with it just like any other J2EE client to server B.
    Does JNDI allow you to do lookups to other namespaces outside of the current namespace on server A?
    Can this even be done?
    Thanks,
    Les Hazlewood

    Yes. It's possible. For one of my applications, I have three HP-UX servers that run i2 software on them, but for different business units. I have a J2EE application that does a little bit of everything for the i2 applications. Since the business logic is the same, with only the business dept differing, I deployed 3 instances of JBoss, each running on their own server. My user's log into one of the applications, doesn't matter which, and if they request a service (EJB) that needs to run on a different server, my webapp makes a connection to that server and uses the remote EJB to do the work. It's very possible and an excellent solution.
    The solution will depend on which J2EE server you're using.
    Here's a class I use to retrieve the InitialContext I need for my application:
    package com.cibavision;
    import javax.naming.InitialContext;
    import javax.naming.Context;
    import javax.naming.NamingException;
    import java.rmi.RemoteException;
    import java.util.Properties;
    public class CibaJNDI{
       public static InitialContext getInitialContext ( String server ) throws javax.naming.NamingException {
          Properties p = new Properties () ;
          p.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY,
                 "org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContextFactory");
          p.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL,
                 "jnp://" + server + ":1099");
          p.put(Context.URL_PKG_PREFIXES,
                 "org.jboss.naming:org.jnp.interfaces");
          return new InitialContext (p) ;
    }Using this class, I have logic in my application that calls for the appropriate server, something like this:
    if businessA then use server1
    if businessB then use server2
    if businessC then use server3
    I then call for my InitialContext, request my EJB, and I'm off and running. No clustering, it matters which machine I'm on (I have to read extract files, etc.)
    Works great. We are also a weblogic shop, but I haven't made any calls to weblogic from outside my J2EE app yet, but it should only differ by the hash attributes you pass to new InitialContext( props ).
    Hope this helps,

  • Ports required for communication between Web servers and service applications (the default is HTTP)

    We're using SharePoint 2010, I'm the system admin for a SharePoint farm. We enabled SharePoint Search by adding a Search Service APplication. One of the crawl report timer job is failing every 5 minte with the error "Cannot connect to remote server".
    After digging around, we found that the server running the timer job tries to connect to the SearchAdmin.svc on the index server, over HTTPS / port 32844 However, communication over SSL via a non default port is blocked by our firewall.
    According to this article: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc262849.aspx the default is HTTP for communication
    between web servers. How is it possible that it's trying to connect over SSL?

    Hi,
    Quoted from
    https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc262849.aspx#ServiceApp :
    You can change the protocol and port binding for each service application. On the Service Applications page in Central Administration, select the service application, and then click

  • How to Break the cluster between Two servers

    Hi Experts,
    Since Iu2019m new to BOBJ XI R2.I would like to know how to break the cluster between two servers.
    Description :
    So far we took the copy of QAS Server1 to the new QAS server2 (Through Mirroring Tool ). Now those two servers are cluster together, I can see QAS server1 CMS Name, Cluster Name, cluster member name in QAS Server2 (CMC-> Setting -> Cluster).
    Besides in QAS Server1 CMS Name and Cluster name are pointing to the QAS Server1, except Cluster Member (This is still have two members Server1 and Server2).(CMC-> Setting -> Cluster).
    In QAS Server1 and QAS Server2 (CMS-> Servers), I can able see both server name under Machine Name tab.
    I would like to make those two servers as independent servers. There are two different data source for those two servers. I want to remove the cluster in both servers.
    Right now QAS Server1 is running and QAS Server2 is stopped.
    If i create/modify a group under new Mapped NT Member Groups in QAS server2 ,it is getting reflecting in QAS server 1.
    Could you please tell me the steps to resolve this problem.
    BO Version: BO XI R2
    Regards,
    Sridharan

    Hi,
    Maybe the external CMS is still 'attached' to your SIA node. Please go to the CCM (Central Configuration Manager) and stop the SIA (Server Intelligent Agent). On one of the tabs you can see if there is an external CMS part of your environment. Delete it and restart the SIA. Retry if you can delete the services now from within your CMS. It may well be that you have to stop both environments and delete each others CMS via the CCM to get it working. If you have not changed any permissions for your Administrator account the security model will not be the one causing this.
    Hope this helps...

    If there any prerequisites of the Share storage types ?and any configuration guide to deploy Cluster between two Server 2012 datacenter ?

    Microsoft Failover Clusters require shared storage.  If you wish to create a failover cluster with local storage, you need to use third party software to mirror the disks and present it to the hosts (siog.com, datacore.com, starwind.com).  If you
    use third party software, you will need to follow their instructions for configuring the environment.

  • Allowing Multicast to work between real servers behind the CSM??

    Hi,
    Just want to know if it is possible to use IP Multicast between real servers on a server subnet that is configured on the CSM. If so how could this be setup?
    I've attached a copy of the our CSM config. In particular, the server subnet in question is "vlan 386 server". The Real servers belong to "serverfarm FARM-VISTA-TEST".
    I suspect that maybe an interface vlan 386 needs to be created on the router, with pim sparse-mode enabled?
    Any ideas?
    thanks
    Sheldon

    the CSM does not know ip multicast, so your multicast needs to find another way to reach the servers.
    You will also need a static route on the servers to point 224.x.x.x to the MSFC and keep the rest of the traffic going to the CSM.
    Another solution is to use bridge mode.
    Create a duplicate vlan 386 on the CSM and the MSFC.
    ie:
    MSFC---vlan387-----CSM-----Vlan386
    On the CSM, you configure vlan387 with the same ip as vlan 386 - this will tell the CSM to bridge the 2 vlans.
    Configure an ip from the same subnet on the msfc int vlan 387.
    configure multicast on vlan 387.
    The CSM should normally bridge all unknown traffic including multicast.
    All you have to do on the servers is change the default gateway to be the MSFC instead of the CSM.

  • How to Restrict Oracle VIP address Movement between DB servers?

    I installed the Oracle 11.2 RAC on 4 server setup.Its a 4 server Grid SETUP and out of 4 servers only servers are runnning the Database Instances.
    The did this installation to use ACFS feature.
    Now i need to map the Public IP with Oracle Database ip address. so from Internet limited user can connect through oracle tns and listener entry.
    If i am mapping with database static ip, then will face service outage in case of that Oracle Instance server down.
    If i am mapping with Oracle Virtual IP address, then this Virtual IP is shifting anyone of the three server. So sometimes it can shift to Grid server where Database is not running.
    How Can I restrict the Database Virtual IP movement between Database servers only ?

  • DHCP Split Scope - Scope Full

    Good Morning,
    I have 2 DHCP svrs offering split scope on more a 50/50 type bases (no delay).... I'm wondering if one DHCP svr runs out of addresses will the second svr's range cover the request?
    I see all this configuration as more a one server is down the other covers, I'm not really sure how it handles things like a range out of addresses... I know the device would send out a DHCP request and the fastest responding server wins but if one server
    can't offer an address does it reply with anything?
    Thanks All
    Paul

    Hi,
    Summary of the conversation (about generating IP lease) between client and DHCP server:
    Client - DHCP discover: ask for IP lease.
    DHCP server - DHCP offer: populated with the IP address the server is offering the client.
    Client - DHCP request: specify which offer(IP) it choose, and ask for detailed information about this IP.
    DHCP server - DHCP ACK: detailed information about IP lease send to the client.
    When a client send discover packet to ask for a lease, all DHCP server which can receive this packet will answer with offer packet. If the DHCP has ran out of IP address or down, it will not broadcast offer packet.
