Alacritech Accelerator Users Guide: Microsoft Windows Edition 4-3
4.4 Configuring Teaming
It is recommended that the user familiarize themselves with the normal teaming proce-
dures (Section 3.6), and the teaming section of the Server Accelerator FAQ before at-
tempting this procedure.
Now use the slicutil command to create a Hot Standby Failover team from the two
ports of the SEN2102ET (Interfaces names: SENA, SENB). To do this, we need to
know the interface ID for each interface. This is given in the output of:
C:\Temp> slicutil interface list
ID Type Connection Name Member VLANs
=============================================================
7 SEN2102ET SENA No No
12 SEN2102ET SENB No No
9 SEN3001EF SEN3001 No No
Note that this ID is not the same as the Idx identifier that is returned by some netsh
commands.
Forming the team is pretty straightforward.
C:\Temp> slicutil team create memid=7,12 type=hsb
Creating team ... done.
C:\Temp> slicutil interface list
ID Type Connection Name Member VLANs
=============================================================
7 SEN2102ET SENA Yes No
12 SEN2102ET SENB Yes No
9 SEN3001EF SEN3001 No No
20 Team Local Area Connection 2 No No
Note that there is now a 'Yes' in the 'Member' column for interfaces SENA and SENB,
and that there is now a new interface of type 'Team' with ID '20'. Had we wanted to for
an 802.3ad link aggregation team, we would have used type=FEC, and of course we
would have had to configure the switch as well.
We rename the new interface and assign it an IP address of 172.17.2.118 with a net-
mask of 255.255.255.0
C:\Temp> netsh int set int name="Local Area Connection 2"
newname=team_test
C:\Temp> netsh int ip set address team_test static 172.17.2.118/24
C:\Temp> slicutil interface list
ID Type Connection Name Member VLANs
=============================================================
7 SEN2102ET SENA Yes No
12 SEN2102ET SENB Yes No
9 SEN3001EF SEN3001 No No
22 Team team_test No No
