Hi all,
I have a 2-Node Active/Active SQL2000/SQL2005 Cluster sitting behind an ISA
box. The SQL2000 which is a non-named intance i.e. default uses port 1433. I
checked this through the SQL 2000 Server Network Utility.
I then checked the SQL2005 named instance using the SQL Server Configuration
Manager for 2005. TCP/IP is enabled and Listen All is set to Yes.
Additionally, under the IP Addresses tab it shows the 3 IP addresses of the
server (doesnt show the Virtual IP address of 172.19.2.42). Under IPAll -
Dynamic Port is set for 1248.
My question is I need to publish these 2 servers in ISA, so that servers in
my DMZ can access them. What IP addresses and ports do I use? When we setup
the cluster we had setup 2 Virtual IP Addresses - 172.19.2.41 and
172.19.2.42. How can I tell which server is bound to which IP? Further, in
the case of SQL2005, how can I tell what port to use?
Any help here is much appreciated!
TIA!

For firewall purposes, publish the IP addresses and the ports actually used
by the SQL instance. In this case, they are the cluster virtual server IP
addresses that are used by the two SQL instances and the actual port numbers
of the two instances can be found in their respective errorlogs.

Hello Param,
Using the Cluster administrator you can see which Virtual Ips are in the
same group as which SQL Server instances.

Gotcha. However, how can I tell which port to publish for SQL2005? 1248?
TIA!
