When an Intel LAN on motherboard (LOM) is installed in your system, the following
window opens:
Only one intermediate driver can be loaded at a time. This means that advanced
options, such as Failover Teaming and VLANs, can be configured for either Intensity
Gigabit adapters or a standalone LOM, but not both.
If you click Yes in the above window, a LOM can be configured only as a member of
a Failover Team, but not as a member of a VLAN.
If you click No, the LOM will not be used as part of a Failover Team.
5. In the Netfinity Gigabit Ethernet Adapter Device Driver properties window, click the
Failover Team Configuration tab.
If there are no Failover Teams or VLANs currently configured, a window opens
prompting you to choose whether to continue configuration. Click Yes to continue
configuration. If there are no teams configured, you are prompted to confirm that
you want to create a new Failover Team. Click Yes to continue, or No to abort
Failover Team configuration.
If you continue with configuration, the Failover Team Configuration tab is
displayed.
Interface components of the Failover Team Configuration tab are described below:
• Team list: This list displays all the teams that have been created. Each team is
identified with a unique instance number. Typically, the first team configured is
instance 1, and the next is instance 2.
Below each configured team is a list of the adapters that have been placed into
the team. You can conceal the team adapter list by clicking the minus box
immediately in front on the team icon. The box contains a plus sign (+) when the
team’s adapters are concealed. To reveal the adapter list when it is concealed,
click the box again.
• Control Buttons: There are five control buttons. These buttons are used for
creating and deleting teams, for adding or removing adapters to or from the
specific teams, and for setting the primary adapter for each team.
• NICs Available for Team Configuration: This list displays all of the adapters
and LOMs that are available to be added to a team. Since each adapter can be
added to only one team, the adapter is removed from this list once it has been
assigned to a team.
