3.6.2 Broadcom Advanced Server Program Driver
Software (NetWare)
BASP Overview
BASP.LAN is Broadcom's virtual Ethernet driver for NetWare 5.1 and 6.x that provides load
balancing, fault-tolerance, and VLAN features. These features are provided by creating teams
(virtual adapters) that consist of multiple NIC interfaces. A team can consist of one to six
(eight on some systems) NIC interfaces and each interface can be designated primary or
standby*. All primary interfaces in a team will participate in Load-balancing operations by
sending and receiving a portion of the total traffic**. Standby interfaces will take over in the
event that all primary interfaces have lost their links. VLANs can be added to a team to allow
multiple VLANs with different VLAN IDs to share the virtual adapter.
Load-balancing and fault-tolerance features work with any third-party NIC adapters. VLANs
only work with Broadcom or Alteon NIC adapters.
*Standby can only be used in Smart Load-Balance mode (See below).
**In IEEE 802.3ad mode, the number of NIC interfaces aggregated is automatically
determined through LACP (see below).
