What to consider when you configure IP address-based static routing in Live Communications Server 2005 (889936)

MORE INFORMATION

In Live Communications Server 2005, you can add a static route on a Live Communications Server 2005 Proxy server. In this scenario, when you configure an IP address as the next hop in a static route, do not click to select the Replace host in request URI check box in the Add Static Route dialog box. To view these settings, follow these steps:

1. Start the Microsoft Office Live Communications Server 2005 tool.
2. Expand your forest, expand Proxy Servers, right-click your Proxy server, and then click Properties.
3. Click the Routing tab, and then click Add.
4. Under Next hop, click IP address.
5. Type the IP address of the next hop router.
6. Do not click to select the Replace host in request URI check box.

Additionally, when you configure the static route settings on the next hop Proxy server, you must use the same value in the Domain box as you configured in the Add Static Route dialog box on this Proxy server.
