NOTE: There must be at least one Broadcom network adapter assigned to the team.
The TCP Offload Engine (TOE), Large Send Offload (LSO) and Checksum Offload (CO) columns indicate if the TOE,
LSO, Jumbo MTU, and/or the CO properties are supported for the adapter. The TOE, LSO, Jumbo MTU, and CO
properties are enabled for a team only when all of the members support and are configured for the feature. If this is the
case, then the team offload capabilities appear on the bottom of the screen.
NOTES:
•
Adding a network adapter to a team where its driver is disabled may negatively affect the offloading capabilities
of the team. This may have an impact on the team’s performance. Therefore, it is recommended that only driver-
enabled network adapters be added as members to a team.

Fallback Disable mode
