We are looking at setting up a system for disaster recovery of our exchange.
Office 1:
CAS Server
Mailbox Server
Office 2:
CAS Server
Mailbox Server
Office 3:
Witness Server
Load Balancer
The offices are connected via 50mb Metro Ethernet. The main office is Office 1 and houses the internet connection. Office 2 will be housing a backup communication line for emergency use for exchange to receive email. The way I see the most reliability is to have a cas array with Office 1 and 2 and use Office 3 to load balance and run the array. Office 3 will also run a witness server to maintain quorum. These are all different subnets and I need to make sure the load balancer can be in another office to do this. All of the offices can talk to each other so my subnets communicate just fine. We have a server in each office running Active Directory and DNS.
I need to make sure the 2200 load balancer can do this.
Thanks,
