00 System With NIC Teaming

The Broadcom Advanced Control Suite (BACS) is preinstalled on the appliance. You use BACS to configure, manage,
and team Network Interface Controllers (NICs) on the PowerVault DL2

x

00 system. The benefits of teaming include traffic

load balancing and fault tolerance.
If the Team Management button is not present in the lower left corner of the BACS management tool, you must install
the Broadcom teaming software. Run setup.exe at C:\Install\BroadcomAdvanced\Driver_Management_Apps_Installer.
Follow the installation instructions and when prompted, select the Broadcom Advanced Server Program (BASP) driver
to be installed on the local hard drive.
