Remote desktop access to a Windows 2003 server Who is making a bridge connection

[sebastiansr]

After creating a bridge with the two nics of a server running Windows 2003 server, i lost the remote desktop connection so i cannot disable the bridge remotely. Is there any way to administer the server remotely despite of the bridge connection?

Thank you!

Do you mean NIC Teaming?

And it shouldn't matter as long as the system gets an IP address and has internet access. How are you connecting remotely? Is this internal or external RDP?

What was the 2nd NIC connected to?
If it was two separate LANs you could have all kinds of ip issues.

The server has two nics, each one in a different network and with a static ip address. Now, is possible to reach every computer from another one, don't matter the network it is in. But no one of the static ip adresses of the two cards is accessible. I hope my explanation was clear enough, my english is not very good. Thank you!

bridging your layer2 is a bad way of doing that.
you need to create VLANs and use route rules to communicate across networks or just make it all one network.

Unfortunately you are not using proper tech terminology so doubly difficult. If you are able, post a diagram with IPs.

If you unplug the ethernet from the 2nd nic that you bridged it will remove that 2nd network.

Hi, I've just tried that but the server is still unreachable. Even, I've disabled the other network (and reenable again) by disabling the switch port but nothing changed. Any other suggestion, please?

Thank you very much!
