Teaming(AFT/ALB/SFT)
This chapter explains Teaming (AFT/ALB/SFT).
` In a system configuration containing a Switch Blade in the BX600 Server Blade, the
Adaptive Load Balancing (ALB) function is not available.
5.1Teaming(AFT/ALB/SFT)
AFT/ALB
Adapter Fault Tolerance (AFT) is a technology of redundant paths between the server and switch
(hub) using multiple Ethernet controllers (LAN adapters). If an error occurs in a switch port, cable, or
LAN port when the path is in use (Primary link)(*), the process is automatically switched to another
path (Secondary link) so that the transmission can be continued without disruption.
For AFT, all ports in a team must be connected to the same switch. Also, the switch spanning tree
function is required not to be activated (disabled).
Adaptive Load Balancing (ALB) is, in addition to the AFT redundant function, a technology to
improve transmission performance to split data from PRIMERGY server to two Ethernet controllers
(Data reception is performed only with Primary Link if [Advanced] - [Receive Load Balancing] is set
to [Disabled]).

5 Teaming(AFT/ALB/SFT) 65
SFT
Switch Fault Tolerance (SFT) is a redundant function with a configuration in which each LAN card is
connected to a different switch. Spanning tree function on the switch is enabled, so that the switch
can be used in the redundant configuration. When an error occurs (*) between the LAN card and its
connected switch, the path to use is switched. However, errors between switches (arrows in the
following figure) cannot be detected. For such errors, it is necessary that the switch spanning tree
function is activated (enabled).
PRIMERGY Server

Primary link
Secondary link
Switch1
* : Link disruption between the LAN card and switch, and equivalent errors are the only errors that
can be detected. Therefore, when a switch is partly faulty but the port connected to the card is
normal in the link level, usually the path will not be switched.
Note
The notes on using the teaming function are as follows:
For more details, refer to [Help] in Intel
• The teaming function is available only for Windows (SP2 or later required).
• Once a Team is created, a virtual adapter (example: Intel(R) Advanced Network Services Virtual
Adapter) is created on OS. Upper protocols are bound with the virtual adapter, not with each physical adapter composing the team.
• Do not use the high-speed teaming function.

• Even when the teaming operation is started correctly, ID=6, 7, 8 event logs are stored at the system
boot. These can be ignored for it is not a problem.
• When teaming is configured, ID=11 warning log and multiple event logs such as ID=15 may be
stored in the event viewer system log at the system boot. These can be ignored for it is not a problem.
5.5Detecting an Error in 1Gbit/s Ethernet I/O
Modules Composing a Team and Replacing
a Defective Card
Follow the steps below to replace a 1Gbit/s Ethernet I/O Module composing a team.
1 Replace a 1Gbit/s Ethernet I/O Module in the server blade.
6 Select the newly installed LAN adapter, and right click.
7 Select [Remove from Team].
A confirmation message may appear. Click [OK] to continue processing.
8 Select the LAN adapter removed from the team and moved out of
the team, and right click.
9 Select [Add to team], and incorporate the replaced LAN adapter in
the team again.
10 Click [OK] and exit Intel
®
PROSet.
11 Restart the system.
` When a 1Gbit/s Ethernet I/O Module composing a team is replaced, if the card before
replacement is set to the primary level, the MAC address that was assigned to the
card before replacement is inherited by the replaced card. Therefore, if the replaced
card is used in the same segment, the MAC address will be duplicated. To replace
the Ethernet controller used in the team, you need to re-set the LAN driver in the
steps as above.
` If you install the replacement 1Gbit/s Ethernet I/O Module in a different daughter card
slot from that of the previous card, you need to delete and reinstall the driver.

VLAN
This chapter explains VLAN.
6.1VLAN
Virtual LAN (VLAN) is not a physical connection but a logical group of LAN-connected devices.
VLAN can specify network segments that the device can use. This enhances network performance
and security.
VLAN also has a function to logically group multiple users and devices, enabling network
management among buildings easily.
Normally, VLAN is set on the switch so that a device can only belong to a single VLAN per Ethernet
controller. However, in this driver, multiple VLANs can be configured on one Ethernet controller.
This driver also supports VLAN defined in IEEE802.1Q.

Notes
For more details, refer to [Help] in Intel(R) PROSet.
• VLAN can be used only with Windows OS (SP2 or later required).
• When adding or deleting a VLAN on Windows, make sure to use Intel(R) PROSet.
In Windows, do not delete or add the VLAN from [Device Manager], [Network and Dial-up
Connections], or [Network Connection]. Without Intel(R) PROSet, VLAN cannot be added or
removed correctly. When adding VLAN again after it is removed, add the VLAN after the system
reboot.
• Do not use protocol other than IP on the VLAN.
Installing the LLC and LNDFC protocols using the Fujitsu communication control service will
cause them to be bound (connected) unconditionally with the VLAN. In a system where protocols
other than IP are installed with a VLAN, release the bind between the protocols and the VLAN.
• The maximum number of available VLANs for one LAN port is 10.
• For Windows, configure maximum four VLANs that enable NetBIOS over TCP/IP in the entire
system.

5 Click [Add VLAN].
6 Set [ID] and [Name], then click [OK].
[ID] must be the same as the set values on the switch. The available range to set is 1 to 4094.
[Name] does not need to be the same as the setting on the switch.
When the confirmation message appears, select [Yes].
7 Repeat Steps 4 through 6 to set respective VLANs.
8 Click [OK] and exit Intel
When configuring a VLAN is completed, a virtual adapter "Intel(R) Advanced Network
Services Virtual Adapter" will appear.
Upper layer protocol is bound to this virtual adapter.
You cannot bind them with the Ethernet controller that makes up a Team.
IP address is set in this virtual adapter.
3 Select a LAN adapter to set the local address and click the
[Advanced] tab.
