Adding a VLAN

You also can add VLANs to a team. The concept behind this is that you
are adding multiple virtual adapters that are on different subnets. The
benefit is that your server can have one network adapter that can belong
to multiple subnets. With a VLAN, you can couple the functionality of load
balancing for the Load Balance Members, and you can employ a failover
adapter.

You can define up to 64 VLANs per team (63 tagged and 1 untagged).
VLANs can only be created when all members are Allied Telesis adapters.
If you try to create a VLAN with another type of adapter, an error message
appears.

Note

Disabled adapters are not recognized and they prevent the creation
of a VLAN. If you attempt to create a VLAN with a disabled adapter,
an error message is displayed.

To configure a team with a VLAN, perform the following procedure.

Note

To maintain optimum adapter performance, your system must have
64 MB of system memory for each of the 8 VLANs created per
adapter.
