122For switch-independent teaming modes, all physical adapters that make up a virtual adapter must usethe unique MAC address assigned to them when transmitting data. That is, the frames that are sent byeach of the physical adapters in the team must use a unique MAC address to be IEEE compliant. It isimportant to note that ARP cache entries are not learned from received frames, but only from ARPrequests and ARP replies.4.3.2 Types of Teams"Available Teaming Types" shows a summary of the teaming types and their classification.Available Teaming TypesSmart Load Balancing and FailoverThe Smart Load Balancing™ and Failover type of team provides both load balancing and failoverwhen configured for load balancing, and only failover when configured for fault tolerance. This typeof team works with any Ethernet switch and requires no trunking configuration on the switch. Theteam advertises multiple MAC addresses and one or more IP addresses (when using secondary IPaddresses). The team MAC address is selected from the list of load balance members. When thesystem receives an ARP request, the software-networking stack will always send an ARP Reply withthe team MAC address. To begin the load balancing process, the teaming driver will modify this ARPreply by changing the source MAC address to match one of the physical adapters.Teaming Type Switch-Dependent *1LinkAggregationControl ProtocolSupportRequired on theSwitchLoadBalancing FailoverSmart Load Balancing andFailover – – SLB (Auto-FallbackDisable) – – Link Aggregation(802.3ad) *2 Generic Trunking (FEC/GEC)/802.3ad-DraftStatic – *1: Switch must support specific type of team.*2: Link aggregation is not supported in the Blade Server. |
