Using Expert Mode

Use Expert Mode to create a team, modify a team, add a VLAN, and configure LiveLink for a Smart Load

Balance and Failover and SLB (Auto-Fallback Disable) team. To create a team using the wizard, see

Broadcom Teaming

Wizard.

To set the default Teaming Mode, select Options from the Tools menu, then select Expert Mode or Wizard

Mode (the default is Wizard Mode).

Note: Enabling Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is not recommended for members of an

SLB type of team.

1. From the Teams menu, select Create Team, or right-click one of the devices in the "Unassigned Adapters"

section and select Create a Team. This option is not available if there are no devices listed in the

"Unassigned Adapters" sections, which means all adapters are already assigned to teams.

2. Click Expert Mode.

Note: If you want to always use Expert Mode to create a team, click Default to Expert Mode on next

start.
