Teamed Network
Adapters
The following Broadcom team types are supported with Hyper-V:
 Smart Load Balancing and Failover (configured only for one
primary and one standby)
 Link Aggregation (IEEE 802.3ad LACP)
 Generic Trunking (FEC/GEC) 802.3ad Draft Static
When configuring a team of ANC10S network adapter on a Hyper-V
system, be aware of the following:
 Create the team prior to binding the team to the Hyper-V virtual
network
 Create a team only with an adapter that is not already assigned to
a Hyper-V virtual network.
 In an IPv6 network, a team that supports Checksum Offload (CO)
and Large Send Offload (LSO) and is bound to a Hyper-V virtual
network reports CO and LSO as an offload capability in BACS.
Also, in an IPv6 network, a team that supports CO or LSO and is
bound to a Hyper-V virtual network reports CO or LSO as an
offload capability in BACS. However, in both instances CO and
LSO do not work. This is a limitation of Hyper-V because this
system does not support CO and LSO in an IPv6 network.
 To successfully perform VLAN tagging for both the host (parent
partition) and the guest (child partition) with the BASP teaming
software, you must configure the team for tagging. Unlike VLAN
tagging with a single adapter, tagging cannot be managed by
Hyper-V when using BASP software.
Removing the
Device Drivers
Uninstall the device drivers for the network adapter from your system only
through the InstallShield wizard. Uninstalling the device drivers with
Device Manager or any other means may not provide a clean uninstall
which, in turn, may cause the system to become unstable. For information
on uninstalling device drivers, see “Removing the Device Drivers” on
page 63.
Preparing an
Answer File
When creating an answer file for an unattended installation or for the
System Preparation Tool (Sysprep) utility, you must include the following
lines under the [Unattend] section:
OemPreinstall=Yes
OemPnpDriversPath=Drivers\NIC
Note
This does not include an unattended installation when performed
from a CD-ROM.
