sp_addlinkedserver over subnet

  • Is it possible to add a linked server that is on a different subnet?

    Thanks.

  • As long as you can register an SQL Server from your EM, you should have no problem at all to link any SQL Server.

  • If you can ping it by DNS name (who uses plain old IP adddress - it is so inflexible) and telnet into TCP port 1433 and UDP port 1434 you should have no problems. If things are firewalled between networks then there are a number of ports that need to be opened as well.
