Hello,
I am not sure of the correct way to ask my question so here is what I was thinking but I am not sure it is possible.
I have 2 server 2012 boxes each with SQL 2012 installed. I have created a 2 GB switch independent NIC team directly between the two servers bypassing the need to use a switch. I have tested the connection and all is good as far as that goes. I also have a connection out to the domain from each of the servers.
On one server I have SSAS and SSRS. On the other I have some DBs. What I would like to have happen is that any requst ever made for data by the first server to the databases on the other server, only go over the 2 GB Team.
This brought me to endpoints. From what I gather I would need to create TCP endpoints on each box. Then grant connect to the domain service account that is running the SQL Server service.
I guess what I am asking is, is this a workable solution? Am I missing something in the big picture that I really need to be aware of. Any insight on how to pull this off would be greatly appreciated.
