Do you need a DNS entry for their WiFi IP address? If not, then why not set the WiFi adapter not to register in the DNS?
From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of James Rankin Sent: Saturday, 18 October 2014 4:22 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [NTSysADM] Multiple NICs in tablets giving problems with management software Got some Win 8.1 tablets with several network interaces (wired, wireless, bluetooth, etc.) When I come to deploy management agents, the IP address which is resolving to the hostname is one that is bound to the wireless NIC, not the wired one. Therefore I can't deploy agents until I disable the wireless NIC, flush the DNS cache, and reconnect. Is there a best practice around configuring multiple NIC devices in this way so they are accessible via the LAN (for remote access, management, AV)? Normally the places I go to are on top of this sort of thing already, but this particular client seems to not have a clue, so I'm reaching out for some advice to pass on to them (this being an area out of my specialist zone) Shout for more info - this request is coming to me second-hand, and I'm on a train trying to play Football Manager :-) Cheers, -- James Rankin --------------------- RCL - Senior Technical Consultant (ACA, CCA, MCTS) | The Virtualization Practice Analyst - Desktop Virtualization http://appsensebigot.blogspot.co.uk
