Setting up team (PROSet)
(1) Team types
The following team types are supported.
 Adapter Fault Tolerance (AFT) is a feature that creates a group containing and automatically converts
the process of the working adapter to the other adapter in the group when any trouble occurred on that
adapter.
 Adaptive Load Balancing (ALB) is a feature that creates a group containing more than one adapter and
enhances the throughput by operating packet transmission from the server by all the adapters. This
feature includes AFT feature.
 Switch Fault Tolerance (SFT) is a feature that provides a failover relationship between two ports when
each port is connected to a separate switch. SFT supports two ports per team.
 Static Link Aggregation (SLA) accounts for the GEC and 802.3ad static protocols. SLA is a
switch-assisted teaming mode and requires configuring ports at both ends of the link: server interfaces
and switch ports.
Important
• The adapters specified as a group of Adaptive Load Balancing (ALB)
can be connected to only Switching Hub.
• When exchange the mother board or option network card, make sure
to remove the adapter team before exchanges and recreate the
adapter team after exchange complete.
• Confirm the port setting of switching hub (L2) matches the server
network adapter Teaming mode.
• All the adapters specified as a group of Adapter Teaming must exist
on the same LAN. If they are connected to the separate switches, they
will not work normally.
