Switch Fault Tolerance (SFT)
Switch Fault Tolerance (SFT) is a redundancy function equal to AFT in configuration when LAN ports
are connected to a separate switch. SFT switches the link to be used between LAN ports and switches
that are connected to the LAN ports when a failure occurs.
However, failures in the links outside of the switches, which are indicated with
I
,
↓
or
J
in the figure
below, can not be detected.

Static Link Aggregation
Select this mode when connecting a team to a Cisco FEC/GEC compliant switch or a switch that
supports IEEE802.3ad-Draft Static. Switch settings are also necessary. All ports in the team must be
connected to the same switch.
Notes
When using the Teaming function, note the following points.
• For AFT/ALB/Static link type, up to four LAN ports can be incorporated into one team and two ports
for a SFT type team.
• Once a Team is created, virtual adapters (Team:(Team Name)) will be created in the [Device
Manager] and/or [Network and Dial-up Connections] of the system. Do not disable or delete this
virtual adapter from the [Device Manager] or [Network and Dial-up Connections]. When deleting a
virtual adapter, make sure to use "Intel
®
PROSet".
• When the Teaming function is being used, only the following protocols can be used:
• For AFT/SFT/Static Link: IP, NetBEUI, IPX (NCP), IPX (NetBIOS)
• For ALB type: IP, IPX (NCP)
• When the Teaming function is being used, Windows Load Balancing Service (WLBS) and Network
Load Balancing (NLB) are not available.
• If Static Link function is in use, only the switch for link aggregation can be used.
• When adding/deleting a Static Link member, perform such operation under linked down status.
`
Only a link down error between a LAN card (onboard LAN) and the switch it connects with, and the
equivalent errors lead to switching of the route. Therefore, if only the switch or LAN card (onboard
LAN) is partially damaged and the route being used is sound at the link level, the route will not be
switched in the team, but the communication with the Team may become an error.
