Troubleshooting 39

Problem

Possible cause

Possible solution

Unable to select VLAN ID for
Active Path, Fast Path, and

Router Path.

This may be expected
behavior based on the

configured settings.

Go to Advanced Redundancy Tab and enable
the failover mechanism such as Active Path

Failover or Fast Path Failover or Router Path
Failover for which you are unable to set VLAN

ID.
Open the NCU and go to the Information tab

for the team. Check the Current Mode. If the
current team mode is 802.3ad Dynamic with

Fault Tolerance or SLB (Switch-assisted Load

Balancing), this is normal behavior. These
team modes do not support Fast Path Failover,

Active Path Failover and Router Path Failover.
If you are unable to set the VLAN ID for fast

path even though Fast Path has been selected
in the Advanced Redundancy tab, then

consider changing the Spanning Tree Protocol

as Cisco PVST+.

Problem

Possible cause

Possible solution

When using CDPv1 the

information tab does not
display the VTP management

domain name for my

devices.

This is expected behavior

when using CDPv1. This
feature is only available with

CDPv2.

If this information is important to you, consider

using CDPv2 instead.

The Discovery Protocol
Settings group is disabled

and I can't set the CDP or
LLDP.

This is expected behavior for
licensable features.

Install a ProLiant Essentials Intelligent
Networking Pack license key

CDP or LLDP is enabled and

CDP or LLDP frames are
being transmitted by the

network device but they are

not being received by the
team.

When CDP or LLDP is first

enabled, it may take 30
seconds to receive the first

CDP or LLDP frame. It is

possible that this delay
occurred as the teaming driver

attempted to register the CDP

or LLDP multicast address with
the miniport. This delay may

have caused the team to fail to

register the multicast address.

Disable CDP or LLDP then re-enable it and

verify that the team registers the address.
