You have a terminal server named Server1 that runs Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 2 (SP2). Windows Firewall is disabled on Server1.
Server1 has two network adapters named NIC1 and NIC2. Both network adapters are connected to the same network segment. The IP address for NIC1 is 192.168.1.11. The IP address for NIC2 is 192.168.1.12. You
regularly connect to Server1 by using Remote Desktop Connection.
The NIC1 network adapter fails.
You attempt to establish a Remote Desktop connection to 192.168.1.12, but the connection fails. You successfully connect to 192.168.1.12 by using Windows Explorer.
You verify that IP filtering is disabled and that no IPSec policies are assigned.
You need to ensure that you can establish Remote Desktop connections to Server1.
What should you do?
A.
From Windows Firewall, enable the Remote Desktop exception.
B.
From Terminal Services Manager, modify the RDP-TCP settings.
C.
From the properties of NIC1, modify Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) settings.
D.
From Windows Explorer, modify the %systemroot%system32driversetcservices file.
Why C option is not correct? I presume B is “more sophisticated” but c will work too. Or am I missing something?

BC “You successfully connect to 192.168.1.12 by using Windows Explorer” .
maybe something wrong with RDP-TCP

I am not guessing here. Changing RDP-TCP settings will help for sure. But changing IP address for NIC1 will work too. I presume this is one of “which is better” questions from Microsoft.

Sorry – my mistake. In RDP-TCP settings, there is tab for Network Adapter and you choosing SPECIFIC network card there:

So if specific NIC fails, IP change doesn’t help.
