b. DNS Requirements
We need to edit DNS record for the Lync pool to include the new
servers. We need to add DNS A records point to our new FE servers (Testlyncfe01 & Testlyncfe02) for the FQDN of our Lync pool (TestLyncPool01.heiway.net) and
DNS A records for Microsoft Lync Server 2010 client auto configuration point to new FEs under SIP zone in internal DNS. Also update the records with
new Lync Front End Server’s IPs on sip.domain.local and sip.domain.com as well.
c. Certificate Requirements
Add
2 more SAN Entries “Testlyncfe03 and Testlyncfe04” on the
Certificate (TestLyncPool01.heiway.net) from Existing Frontend Server (Testlyncfe01 & Testlyncfe02).
Install the new certificate on the all the Front End Servers (Testlyncfe01, Testlyncfe02, Testlyncfe03 and Testlyncfe04)
d. HLB Requirements
Add
the new Front End Servers on the Hardware Load balancer and update the new
certificate on HLB

Stop
the services on TestLyncfe01, TestLyncfe02, TestLyncfe03 and TestLyncfe04 to check
the traffic.
