Changing the Primary NIC
The first NIC added to an empty group is automatically
designated the primary NIC. NICs added subsequently are
designated as secondary NICs. If a foreign (non-3Com) NIC
is used, it must be designated the primary NIC. Primary
status is indicated by a P icon at the beginning of the
NIC name.
When there are more than one NIC in a group, you can
change the primary NIC as follows:
1 Click the Load Balance/RSL tab.
2 In the Load Balance/RSL window, select a secondary
NIC from the Load Balance/RSL Groups list.
3 Click Select Primary.
Removing a NIC from a Group
Follow these steps to remove a NIC from a group:
1 Click the Load Balance/RSL tab.
2 In the Load Balance/RSL window, select a NIC from
a group in the Load Balancing/RSL Groups list.
3 Click Remove NIC.
