13. Complete the configuration of the VLAN ID assignment by assigning a
dynamic or static IP address to this enabled logical interface. The Windows
command, ipconfig /all, lists the newly created logical interface but not
the physical interfaces and the teaming logical interface. These interfaces
are not listed because the logical team interface is visible to the operating
system for all operations, while the QLogic VLAN/teaming driver manages
the physical interfaces and teaming.
