Problem: Unable to obtain network settings through DHCP using PXE.
Solution: For proper operation make sure that the Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) 
is disabled or that portfast mode (for Cisco) is enabled on the port to which the 
PXE client is connected. For instance, set spantree portfast 4/12 
enable.

Problem: After physically removing a NIC that was part of a team and then 
rebooting, the team did not perform as expected.
Solution: To physically remove a teamed NIC from a system, you must first delete 
the NIC from the team. Not doing this before shutting down could result in 
breaking the team on a subsequent reboot, which may result in unexpected team 
behavior.
Problem: After deleting a team that uses IPv6 addresses and then re-creating the 
team, the IPv6 addresses from the old team are used for the re-created team.
Solution: This problem is a third-party issue. To remove the old team’s IPv6 
addresses, locate the General page for the team’s TCP/IP properties from your 
system’s Network Connections. Either delete the old addresses and type in new 
IPv6 addresses, or select the option to automatically obtain IP addresses.
Problem: Adding an Network Load Balancing-enabled BCM57xx and BCM57xxx 
adapter to a team may cause unpredictable results.
Solution: Prior to creating the team, unbind Network Load Balancing from the 
BCM57xx and BCM57xxx adapter, create the team, and then bind Network Load 
Balancing to the team.
