Installing Intel Teaming feature to COM600

The Teaming feature is available only if a LAN optional card has been installed in
COM600.
Teaming Features include Failover protection, increased bandwidth through aggregation,
and balancing of traffic among team members. Teaming Modes are AFT, SFT, ALB,
RLB, and EtherChannel*/3ad (LA/FEC/GEC/3ad). However, only Failover protection
using SFT is supported by COM600. SFT uses two (total) adapters connected to two
devices (that is, switches) to provide a fault tolerant network connection if the first
adapter, its cabling or the device (switch) fail. This is determined by a link failure.
To use the SFT connect Intel(R) PRO/1000 MT Dual Port Server Adapter network ports
to two devices (that is, switches). Spanning tree protocol must be switched on in the
devices (switches). Do not put clients on the link partner switches, as they do not pass
to the partner switch at fail.
To install Intel Teaming Feature:
1. Install advanced network services. Run C:\Intel\ PROWin32.exe and follow the
installation instructions.
2. Open Control Panel.
3. Click Device Manager.
4. Expand Network adapters and double-click Intel(R) 82567LM Gigabit Network
Connection.
5. The Properties windows appear. Select the Teaming tab.
