Red Hat Linux Broadcom driver installation
To perform a driver installation for Red Hat Linux®, use the example Red Hat Linux AS 2.1
Broadcom driver installation in Chapter 6 of the Cisco Systems Intelligent Gigabit Ethernet
Switch Module for IBM
Eserver
BladeCenter that is available at:

6.2.3 Broadcom Advanced Control Suite installation
Network interface card (NIC) teaming is one method for providing high availability and fault
tolerance in IBM
Eserver
servers. In this example, we use Broadcom Advanced Services
Program (BASP) to implement teaming functionality along with load balancing, fault
tolerance, and VLAN tagging.
To enable NIC teaming, the Broadcom Advanced Control Suite (BACS) application must be
used on the HS20s. The program is included with the drivers, which you can download at:
http://www.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-43815
To install the suite:
1. Navigate to the location where the Broadcom Advanced Control Suite application files
were extracted (default C:\Drivers\BcomXXX, where XXX is the code level). Execute
Launch.exe. You see a window similar to the one shown in Figure 6-7 on page 54.
