Chapter 38. Layer 2 Failover

The primary application for Layer 2 Failover is to support Network Adapter

Teaming. With Network Adapter Teaming, all the NICs on each server share the

same IP address, and are configured into a team. One NIC is the primary link, and

the other is a standby link. For more details, refer to the documentation for your

Ethernet adapter.

Note: Only two links per server can be used for Layer 2 LAG Failover (one primary

and one backup). Network Adapter Teaming allows only one backup NIC for each

server blade.
