NOTE: When viewing the Web user interface on a Dell PowerEdge™ 1900 system
that is configured with one NIC, the NIC Configuration page displays two NICs (NIC1
and NIC2). This behavior is normal. The PowerEdge 1900 system (and other Dell
systems that are configured with a single LAN On Motherboard) can be configured
with NIC teaming. Shared and Teamed modes work independently on these systems.
