Using ManageEngine ADManager Plus with Dual NICs: Tips Needed
Asked by
TechTrekker29
Has anyone successfully set up ManageEngine ADManager Plus with two network interface cards (NICs) on a single machine across different domains? We hold a license that covers both domains, but we're having performance issues—everything is running quite slow. The support team insists that the software supports dual NICs, but they're asking for endless logs, which is frustrating. Any advice or tips would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Using two NICs can complicate things—especially if the domains on different subnets aren't able to communicate effectively. It's good that you're verified it supports dual NICs, but slow performance doesn't necessarily mean there’s an issue with compatibility. Just make sure your network configuration is set up properly. Also, since you mentioned ManageEngine support isn't very helpful, consider if they appreciate this kind of setup or prefer a different method.

Instead of dealing with two NICs, have you thought about using VLAN tagging? It could simplify your setup and help manage traffic between the domains more effectively without the latency issues you’re experiencing.

TT: Yeah, the network setup has definitely been a challenge. I'm wondering if it might be better to look into adjusting some of the network settings.
