C Network Teaming
Overview
Avid Service Framework (ASF) does not yet handle multiple vlan failover well. Therefore, if
an AirSpeed Multi Stream that Capture is controlling were to have a network related failure
on the primary network connection, the AirSpeed Multi Stream Device Service
communication would not automatically start communicating on the other NIC. A reboot of
the AirSpeed Multi Stream would fix this problem.
To help prevent this from happening in the first place, the site can setup fault-tolerance
network teaming for both vlan connections. This results in four connected network adapters,
two to each vlan.
Setting Up Network Teaming
This procedure shows you how to set up Network teaming on your AirSpeed Multi Stream.
To set up network teaming:
1. Provide names for your network adapters as shown in the following screen example:
n
It is not important which connections go to which vlans.
2. Open the Properties of one of those network connections, and click the Configure
button for the network adapter.
3. Confirm the network driver is at least version 9.13.16.0. If it is not, upgrade to the latest
version before continuing.
