3.6.4 Notes and restrictions


NIC teaming on a guest OS is not supported.

Teaming of virtual NICs on the host OS is not supported in the Hyper-V environment.

When STP (Spanning Tree Protocol) is enabled on network switch ports to which network adapters of
the team are connected, network communications may be disrupted. Disable STP, or configure
"PortFast" or "EdgePort" to the ports.
* About setting the network switch of the connection destination, see the manual of the network switch.

All NICs in the team must be connected to the same subnet.

Teaming of different speed NICs is not supported.

Teaming of different vendor's NICs is not supported.

When teaming is configured in a Network Load Balancing (NLB) environment, you should select
multicast mode on the NLB cluster.

When a team is removed, the following error message may be logged in the system event log.
You can safely ignore this error message.


In a Windows Server Failover Cluster environment, heartbeat interruption or failover may occur if you
configure Active-Standby teaming. To avoid this, you should configure multiple NICs in Active Mode in a
team so that all the NICs do not fail simultaneously.

In Hyper-V environments, binding a teaming adapter to the virtual switch is deprecated.
Please use SET(Switch Embedded Teaming) when you use teaming in combination with a virtual switch.
