HP NC3131 Fast Ethernet Server Adapter - Manual (Page 10)

• PreferredPrimaryNIC—establishes the Initial Primary NIC for Manual, FailOnFault, and
TransmitLoadBalancing or the Preferred Primary NIC for SmartSwitch. This
configuration property is not applicable to Switch-Assisted Load Balancing teams. The
value must be a non-zero integer that corresponds to one of the NICS on the team.
• TeamNetworkAddress—establishes the MAC address for the NIC team. A null value will
always be written to the XML data file. A null value is valid and will cause a default
address to be computed. This value must be a valid unicast address if it is edited.
• HeartBeatMode—enables or disables the heartbeat signal between the team NICs.
Possible values are Enabled or Disabled.
• HeartBeatInterval—determines how frequently the heartbeat signals are transmitted. The
range of acceptable values is 3000 to 60000. Values less than 3000 will be set to 3000,
while values greater than 60000 will be set to 60000.
XML Script File
The XML data file consists of the three following XML elements:
• —Brackets the entire data file and is required.
• —Defines NIC properties.
• —Defines teams and their properties.
The ‘relnics’ attribute of the element lists the NICs that are to be configured on the
team.
The following example is a typical NIC teaming script.
