Creating a NIC Team
Since the NICs and HBAs are seen as virtual ports, you can treat them as separate entities and create a
NIC team with the virtual CNA NIC ports. In Figures 51 - 54, you can see the two virtual NIC ports are
NIC teamed using ‘Failsafe Team’.
In this example, Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise is the operating system used.
2. To create a NIC team on the virtual NIC ports navigate to Control Pane > Network and
Internet > Network and Sharing Center > Change adapter settings and right click one of the ports
you wish to put in a NIC team. Click Properties. Click the Configure button. Next, click the Team
Management tab as shown in Figure 52.
