NOTES:
The team name cannot exceed 39 characters, cannot begin with spaces, and cannot contain any of the following
characters: & \ / : * ? < > |
Team names must be unique. If you attempt to use a team name more than once, an error message is displayed
indicating that the name already exists.
The maximum number of team members is 8.
When team configuration has been correctly performed, a virtual team adapter driver is created for each configured
team.
If you disable a virtual team and later want to reenable it, you must first disable and reenable all team members before
you reenable the virtual team.
When you create Generic Trunking and Link Aggregation teams, you cannot designate a standby member. Standby
members work only with Smart Load Balancing and Failover and SLB (Auto-Fallback Disable) types of teams.
For an SLB (Auto-Fallback Disable) team, to restore traffic to the load balance members from the standby member,
click the Fallback button on the Team Properties tab.
When configuring an SLB team, although connecting team members to a hub is supported for testing, it is
recommended to connect team members to a switch.
