5.7.4 Teaming Function
■ Notes
When using the Teaming function, note the following points.
• You require Service Pack 2 or later for Windows 2000 Server.
• For AFT/ALB/FEC/GEC type, you can incorporate up to four LAN ports into one team and two ports
for a SFT type team.
• Once a Team is created, virtual adapters (Intel
®
Advanced Network Service Virtual Adapter) will be
created in the [Device Manager] and/or [Network and Dial-up Connections] of the system. Do not
disable or delete this virtual adapter from the [Device Manager] or [Network and Dial-up
Connections]. When deleting a virtual adapter, make sure to use "Intel
®
PROSet".
• When the Teaming function is being used, you can only use the following protocols.
• For AFT/SFT/FEC/GEC type: IP, NetBEUI, IPX (NCP), IPX (NetBIOS)
• For ALB type: IP, IPX (NCP)
• When the Teaming function is being used, you cannot use the hardware assist function of IPSEC. Do
not use this function even if the function is installed in all cards in the team.
• When the Teaming function is being used, you cannot use Windows Load Balancing Service
(WLBS) and Network Load Balancing (NLB).
• PG-1852 does not become a member of a Team.
• You cannot select FEC/GEC type when Teaming Up the onboard LAN and a LAN card.
• If FEC/GEC type is selected, you can only use the switch for link aggregation.
• When adding/deleting a FEC/GEC type member, perform such operation under a linked down state.
Only a link down error between a LAN card (onboard LAN) and the switch it connects with, and the
equivalent errors lead to switching of the route. Therefore, if only the switch or LAN card (onboard
LAN) is partially damaged and the route being used is sound at the link level, the route will not be
switched in the team, but the communication within the Team may become an error.
