Option 2: HP D2D Backup System on Network SAN only with Gateway
In this option the D2D has connections only to the Network SAN, but there is a network router or Gateway server
providing access to the Active Directory domain controller on the Corporate LAN. In order to ensure two-way
communication between the Network SAN and Corporate LAN the subnet of the Network SAN should be a
subnet of the Corporate LAN subnet.
Once configured, authentication traffic for CIFS shares will be routed to the AD controller but data traffic from
media servers with a connection to both networks will travel only on the Network SAN. This configuration allows
both 1Gbit network connections to be used for data transfer but also allows authentication with the Active
Directory Domain controller. The illustration shows a simple Class C network for a medium-sized LAN
configuration.
