Question: Why does my team lose connectivity for the first 30 to 50 seconds after
the primary adapter is restored (fall-back after a failover)?
Answer: During a fall-back event, link is restored causing Spanning Tree Protocol
to configure the port for blocking until it determines that it can move to the
forwarding state. You must enable Port Fast or Edge Port on the switch ports
connected to the team to prevent the loss of communications caused by STP.
Question: Where do I monitor real time statistics for an adapter team in a
Windows server?
Answer: Use QCC GUI or QCS CLI to monitor general, IEEE 802.3 and custom
counters.
Question: What features are not supported on a multivendor team?
Answer: VLAN tagging, and RSS are not supported on a multivendor team.

Windows System Event Log Messages
The known base and intermediate Windows System Event Log status messages
for the Marvell BCM57xx and BCM57xxx adapters are listed in Table 11-8 on page
199 and Table 11-9 on page 202. As a Marvell adapter driver loads, Windows
places a status code in the system event viewer. There may be up to two classes
of entries for these event codes depending on whether both drivers are loaded
(one set for the base or miniport driver and one set for the intermediate or teaming
driver).
