Change network card priority in Windows Server 2012 R2


  • ·         The first thing to do is to go in the “Network and Sharing Center“: just launch the Run command and enter “ncpa.cpl“.
  • ·         As you can see, you have all your network cards available in this window.
  • ·         Next, if you press the “ALT” key, you will show different tabs appear in the top.


  • ·         Click on the “Advanced” tab and then “Advanced Settings…
  • ·         A window will appear with the different network cards and the different parameters for IPv4 and IPv6.



·    There, you just have to select the one you want to use in priority and click on the up arrow and put it at the top of the list.

  •  Once done, you can check with “NSLOOKUP” and see the difference before and after changing priority for your network cards.
