Saving and Restoring Teaming Configuration
QLogic recommends that you periodically save the configuration to prevent any
accidental loss of network topology and settings. Current configuration including
the teams, VLANs, and properties can be saved to a file. Restoring an earlier
configuration results in the destruction of the current configuration.
To save a configuration:
1. On the Team Management page under Teams and Adapters, right-click
the Teams folder.
2. On the shortcut menu, click Save to File.
3. Enter a location to save the configuration.
To restore a configuration:
1. On the Team Management page under Teams and Adapters, right-click
the Teams folder.
2. On the shortcut menu, click Restore From File.
3. Select a previously saved configuration file.

To display Ethernet port statistics, issue the following command:
