Windows 2000

and Windows

Server 2003

This section lists known problems and solutions when using Windows
2000 or Windows Server 2003.

Problem: IP address is configurable on a member of the team.

Solution: When a team is created, the TCP/IP properties for the adapters
are unselected. Then you can select and configure TCP/IP properties of
the adapters and configure an IP address manually. This is a limitation of
the Windows 2000 network installation paradigm where this invalid
configuration is still allowed.

Problem: When creating 64 VLANs, all virtual adapters show
disconnected or one of the 64 VLANs show disabled.

Solution: The maximum VLAN configurations are 63 tagged and one
untagged VLAN ID 0. If 64 tagged VLANs are created, they are
disconnected. A reboot is required and only 63 tagged VLANs show links,
while a 64th is disabled.

Miscellaneous

The following table lists known miscellaneous problems and solutions:

Problem: When the bus on the system is operating at PCI mode, the
