Broadcom Advanced Control Suite 2 (BACS2) is an integrated utility that provides useful information about each Broadcom network adapter that is installed in your server. BACS2 also enables you to perform detailed tests, diagnostics, and analyses on each adapter, as well as to view and modify property values and view traffic statistics. SLB (Auto-Fail back disable) SLB (Smart Load Balancing) provides for switch-independent, bi-directional, fault-tolerant teaming and load balancing. 5 1. 3. 4 Step4 Choose the available adapters to Load Balance Members or Standby Member. Load Balance Members groups the adapter into a Load Balancing team. Standby Member adapter is idle until a failover event (for example, loss of link occurs) while primary member is handling all incoming and outgoing traffic. Tip: Teaming is only fully supported by server controllers, such as Broadcom 5721, 5722 etc. 5754, 5755, 5753 are client controllers, do not support teaming, it will report the error below if you try to build a team. 6 1. 3. 5 Step5 Add the adapters to Load Balance Members or Standby Member.
