You should gather information about the Configuration Storage server and ISA Server array members as described in the following sections.
Configuration Storage Server
Update the following table with information about the Configuration Storage server.
For information about the Configuration Storage server, see ISA Server Enterprise Edition Components later in the document.
Property | Value | Property | Value |
---|---|---|---|
IP address |
___.___.___.___ |
Subnet mask |
___.___.___.___ |
Default gateway |
___.___.___.___ |

Preferred Domain Name System (DNS) server |
___.___.___.___ |
Alternate DNS server |
___.___.___.___ |
Fully qualified domain name (FQDN) |
_______________ |

Note the following:
- Make sure to have DNS configured properly because the
Configuration Storage server needs to be able to resolve the FQDN
names of all of the array members.
ISA Server Array Members (ISA Server Firewall servers)
You should gather the information described in the following tables.
External Network Adapter
Update the following table with information about an external network adapter.
Property | Value | Property | Value |

General Information
Update the following table with information about the FQDN.
Property | Value | Property | Value |

Note the following:
- If you have a server with more than one network adapter, you
typically enter one default gateway. With ISA Server, the default
gateway is usually configured on the external network adapter.
- If there are additional internal networks that are connected
using a router, add required routes to ISA Server prior to
beginning the installation.
- Make sure that routing is properly configured before installing
ISA Server 2006.
- DNS servers in most cases should be configured on the internal
network adapter and should point to an internal DNS server. Confirm
that the name resolution is working properly.
- Depending on your configuration, you might have to create an
access rule to allow DNS queries from the Internal network.
- If routing and name resolution are not working properly and ISA
Server 2006 is installed, it will be difficult to troubleshoot
the cause of the problem.
