It cannot. This is "desktop" network adapter, not server one.

What are good server adapters?? Which can be teamed with a Utility. Have used Broadcom II 5708 ones...are they good??

 

by: gtworekPosted on 2009-08-27 at 08:54:36ID: 25199658

Broadcom NICs are one of the bests.
People love Intel NICs too but you have to install at least one server NIC. Read more at http://www.intel.com/support/network/sb/cs-009747.htm#Adapters

One of our servers have Intel Pro 1000 MT, But in the device manager I am not getting teaming tab, after install ProSet.

I haven't installed Microsoft SNMP as intel setup it had a option for that.

Please guide.

Thanks

Intel Pro 1000 MT can be teamed with Intel ANS software

 

by: ShivtekPosted on 2009-08-27 at 09:27:57ID: 25200038

Where can I find and install that software??

 

by: gtworekPosted on 2009-08-27 at 09:33:49ID: 25200111

It should be accessible in PROSet. But you have to be sure you have server version of PRO 1000 MT not workstation one.
You have to run intel teaming wizard from you PROSet software. If your adapter is listed there - it's supported.

I have installed it but I dont see any tabs (Teaming) in the device manager?

Do you have server version of this card?
are you logged on locally or via RDP?

 

by: ShivtekPosted on 2009-08-27 at 13:04:39ID: 25202107

I am logged in locally. Where do I find the Server Version?

 

by: gtworekPosted on 2009-08-27 at 20:49:48ID: 25204858

You can find detailed info about your NICs inside your PROSet.

 

by: ShivtekPosted on 2009-08-28 at 06:52:30ID: 25207631

The team I am configuring is the Link Aggregation right? As I want to balance the load between the two. Or its something else. As if I choose that one and before creating the team I assign the IP addresses to the 2 nic's and once the team is created I assign the IP to the TEAM.

But when I go in the proset and select one of the nic cards and click on test switch it says your switch is configured got link aggregation choose ALP /AFT something like that.

Please guide does the switch needs to be configured for teaming as well and which team is the one I need? Thanks

I am using the NetGear GS748T Smart Switch.

Adapter Fault Tolerance (AFT)
Allows mixed models and mixed connection speeds as long as there is at least one Intel® PRO server adapter in the team. A 'failed' Primary adapter will pass its MAC and Layer 3 address to the failover (secondary) adapter. Implemented in Microsoft Windows*, NetWare* 4.111 and above, UnixWare* 7.x with ddi8, and Linux* (32 bit). All adapters in the team should be connected to the same hub or switch with Spanning Tree (STP) set to Off.

Adaptive Load Balancing (ALB)
Offers increased network bandwidth by allowing transmission over 2-8 ports to multiple destination addresses, and also incorporates Adapter Fault Tolerance. Only the primary receives incoming traffic. Only the primary transmits broadcasts/multicasts and non routed protocols. The ANS software load balances transmissions, based on Destination Address, and can be used with any switch. Simultaneous transmission only occurs at multiple addresses Implemented in Microsoft Windows* 2000, Windows Server* 2003, and Windows NT 4; NetWare 4.111 and above; UnixWare 7.x with ddi8; and Linux. This mode can be connected to any switch.

So really I need ALB, I just more throughput in and out of the server to the network. So ALB right?

And I notices since I deleted the last team I created, one of the NIC card is only sending packets and receiving 0. What could cause that??

 

by: gtworekPosted on 2009-08-28 at 09:24:39ID: 25209241

ALB is good solution for you. As I wrote: in ALB "Only the primary NIC receives incoming traffic". So only this adapter has receiving packets count different than 0.
It's OK.

Another thing. the client machine IP details show that the DHCP server is 192.168.1.3 whereas i should be 192.168.1.2.

When I go to DHCP I dont see anywhere it says 192.168.1.3. Can you help me how to fix that??

 

by: gtworekPosted on 2009-08-28 at 09:34:46ID: 25209333

I do not know why... Probably it's not related to teaming. Try to "ipconfig /renew".

 

by: ShivtekPosted on 2009-08-28 at 09:39:53ID: 25209382

I checked all that I even disabled the 192.168.1.3, still its picking that IP address for DHCP server. Logging in seems slower as well. And teaming is actually off right now. Teams are deleted.

Also on the server when I ping the server name it goes to 192.168.1.2

But on clients it goes to 192.168.1.3 and that doesn't respond. I would like it to go to 192.168.1.2 on both sides.  I checked the PTR and A Records. What could it be do you kow?
