5-24 Installing the Operating System with Express SetupSetup TeamAdapter Fault Tolerance (AFT) is a feature that creates a group containing more than one adapterand automatically converts the process of the working adapter to the other adapter in the groupwhen any trouble occurred on that adapter.Adaptive Load Balancing (ALB) is a feature that creates a group containing more than one adapterand enhances the throughput by operating packet transmission from the server by all the adapters.This feature includes AFT feature.Switch Fault Tolerance (SFT) is a feature that provides a failover relationship between two portswhen each port is connected to a separate switch.SFT supports two ports per team.Static Link Aggregation (SLA) accounts for the GEC and 802.3ad static protocols.SLA is a switch-assisted teaming mode and requires configuring ports at both ends of the link:server interfaces and switch ports.IMPORTANT: AFT/ALB setup must be operated after system update and restartingthe system. All the adapters specified as a group of Adapter Teaming must existon the same LAN. If they are connected to the separate switches,they will not work normally. The adapters specified as a group of Adaptive Load Balancing(ALB) can be connected to only Switching Hub. When exchange the mother board or option network card, make sureto remove the adapter team before exchanges and recreate theadapter team after exchange complete. Confirm the port setting of switching hub (L2) matches the servernetwork adapter Teaming mode. Teaming is not supported with Windows Server Core. If you want to change the type of a teaming, be sure to remove theteaming first, then re-setup a new teaming. Do not use the functionof PROSet to change the type of a teaming.
