Team Mode

Details of the functions and configurations required for each online mode provided by the DNS-3200 are given below.

Adapter Fault Tolerance (AFT)

Function: AFT provides automated residue to the network interface card as a fault tolerance. From the two network ports connected to the switch or hub at the same time, one is the primary network for normal team, and the other is the backup and is usually not in the “On” state. If the primary online adapter card develops a problem, the backup network will start and take over the team.

Network configuration:

1.The network port must be connected to the same network switch.

2.The switch must have the Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) in the “Off” state.

3.All switches are available for support.
