Adding a VLAN
You can add virtual LANs (VLANs) to a team. This enables you to add multiple virtual adapters that are on different subnets.
The benefit of this is that your system can have one network adapter that can belong to multiple subnets. With a VLAN, you
can couple the functionality of load balancing for the load balance members, and you can employ a failover adapter.
You can define up to 64 VLANs per team (63 VLANs that are tagged and 1 VLAN that is not tagged). VLANs can only be
created when all teams members are Broadcom adapters. If you try to create a VLAN with a non-Broadcom adapter, an error
message is displayed.
To configure a team with a VLAN
1. Click the Team Management button at the bottom of the BACS 3 window, or from the View menu, select Navigate, then
Team Management.
2. Select one of the listed teams.
3. From the Teams menu, select Add VLAN.
4. The Welcome screen appears.
5. Click Expert Mode.
6. On the Create Team tab of the Manage Teams window, click Manage VLAN(s).
