Good Morning, I have a server which has two NICs. One NIC is set to the static IP of the server and the second NIC is set to DHCP. In order to test something I need to be able to run a continious ping from NIC2. I am unable however to figure out how to do this... Is it possible to have both NICs active but to select which NIC you want to run the ping from? Any assistance is greatly appreciated!

No, you cannot choose which NIC to use, at least not via the command itself. Which interface is used to send out packets is determined by the local routing table. You can look at the computer's routing table by opening up a command prompt and typing ROUTE PRINT [hit enter]. The computer uses this table to determine which interface to use based on the packet's destination address. Visit: anITKB.com, an IT Knowledge Base.
