LOM:1-a can be assigned to Prod-101-1, no other NIC on LOM:1 can be assigned to Prod-101-1) This is
discussed in further details in the Flex-10 technology brief mentioned earlier in this scenario.
As additional NICs are added to a server profile that is assigned to a server with a 10Gb Flex-NIC, the
assignment will alternate between LOM:1 and LOM:2. The first NIC will be LOM:1-a, the second will be
LOM:2-a, then LOM:1-b, LOM:2-b etc. to a max of 4 NICs per LOM.

Summary

This profile will present Network Port 1 to "PROD-A-1" which is configured on VC Flex-10 module 1, and
Network Port 1, with Network Port 2 to "PROD-A-2", which is configured on VC Flex-10 module 2. Both
PROD-A-1 and PROD-A-2 are configured to support VLAN 101, so these two NICs are connected to the
same VLAN, but taking a different path out of the enclosure. These two NICs could now be teamed within
the OS.

Windows 2003 Networking Configuration Example
The following graphics show a Windows 2003 server with TWO Flex-10 NICs configured as single NICs,
at FULL 10Gb speed. You will also notice that Windows currently believes there are 8 NICs within this
server. However, only TWO NICs are currently configured within Virtual Connect Flex-10, so the
additional NICs show as disconnected.
