Shared with Failover LOM2
— Select this option to share the
network interface with the host operating system. The remote
access device network interface is fully functional when the host
operating system is configured for NIC teaming. The remote
access device receives data through NIC 1 and NIC 2, but
transmits data only through NIC 1. If NIC 1 fails, the remote
access device fails over to NIC 2 for all data transmission.
The remote access device continues to use NIC 2 for data
transmission. If NIC 2 fails, the remote access device fails over
all data transmission back to NIC 1 if the failure in NIC1 has
been corrected.

Shared with Failover All LOMs
— Select this option to share the
network interface with the host operating system. The remote
access device network interface is fully functional when the host
operating system is configured for NIC teaming. The remote
access device receives data through NIC 1, NIC 2, NIC 3, and
NIC 4; but it transmits data only through NIC 1. If NIC 1 fails,
the remote access device fails over all data transmission to NIC 2.
If NIC 2 fails, the remote access device fails over all data
transmission to NIC 3. If NIC 3 fails, the remote access device
fails over all data transmission to NIC 4. If NIC 4 fails the remote
access device fails over all data transmission back to NIC 1, but
only if the original NIC 1 failure has been corrected. This option
may not be available on iDRAC6 Enterprise.
