All other NICs added to the team are reconfigured automatically to match

been removed from any team, it will operate according to the parameters set for it
before becoming a member of a team.

At least one NIC must be displayed in the Team Members list box. If a team
has no NICs assigned, you will be prompted to add another NIC or delete
the team.
NOTE:
NICs that are part of a team inherit all the basic configuration properties of
the team, including VLANs associated with the team. If you delete a team, any
VLANs configured for that team will also be deleted.
