Just reading this post

https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/networking/2015/08/14/adjusting-the-network-protocol-bindings-in-windows-10/

and this line " There are no longer any components that utilize the binding order."

Just wondered if its the same for Server 2012 R2? Setting the binding order doesn't make any difference.

Comments, clarifications, technet articles would be great.

Interesting. On the rare occasion we've needed to prioritise one connection, the Interface Metric has been my go-to place, but I do remember fiddling with binding order in the last - likely for Server 2003 and prior.

Any particular reason you were looking at this?

Can't you still do it?

I thought this was the binding order?

Thanks for the reply.

A 2012 R2 hyper-v project i'm working on.

I know trivial and a very minor bit of detail, but I need to cover it. I was looking at the metric as well, which probably holds more "weight'

Yes, your correct it is.

But does that order actually make a difference in 2012 R2? Or is setting the metric that makes the diff

Ahh not sure, possibly not. I had vmware workstation on mine, and had set nic one for VMs and a 2nd for local use. But I don't know if the order was working properly.

I've since moved to hyper-v so I can team the 2 nics together.

Mind if I ask what exactly you are trying to do? Ive got a fair bit of experience (around 8 years) with MS Hyper-V Server (2008 R2 to 2016).
