target system for advanced teaming options to be configured on the target server. If a
valid license does not exist, an error message is written to the log and the script exits
without performing any actions.

LoadBalAlgorithm — determines the team load balancing algorithm. Possible

values are MACAddress, IPAddress, TCPConnection, RoundRobin, and Auto.

TeamNetworkAddress — establishes the MAC address for the NIC team. A value

is always written to the XML data file. A null value is valid and causes a default
address to be computed. This value must be a valid unicast address if it is edited.

TxPathValidationMode — enables or disables the packet signal transmitted

between the team NICs. Possible values are Enabled or Disabled.

RxPathValidationMode — enables or disables the packet signal received between

the team NICs. Possible values are Enabled or Disabled.

TxPathValidationInterval — determines how frequently the packet signals are

transmitted. The range of acceptable values is 3 to 60. Values less than 3 are set to 3,
and values greater than 60 are set to 60.

RxPathValidationInterval — determines how frequently the packet signals are

received. The range of acceptable values is 3 to 60. Values less than 3 are set to 3, and
values greater than 60 are set to 60.

RxPathValidationVlanID — determines the VLAN on which Receive Path

Validation Heartbeat Frames are transmitted. This value is only written when a
VLAN is defined for the team. The default is the VLAN on the team with the lowest
VLAN ID at the time the team is created.

FastPathEnabled — enables or disables the port cost with path cost monitoring

feature. Possible values are Enabled or Disabled.

If the FastPathEnabled is set to Enabled, the team is considered to be using advanced
teaming. A valid HP Integrity Essentials Intelligent Networking Pack license must
be installed on the target system for advanced teaming options to be configured on
the target server. If a valid license does not exist, an error message is written to the
log and the script exits without performing any actions.

FastPathSpanningTreeType — determines the spanning tree protocol. Possible

values are IEEE 802.1D and Cisco PVST+. The default is IEEE 802.1D.
FastPathSpanningTreeType is only relevant if FastPathEnabled is enabled.

FastPathVlanID — determines the VLAN ID used for path cost monitoring. This

value is written only if a VLAN is defined for the team. FastPathVlanID is only
relevant if FastPathEnabled is enabled.

ActivePathEnabled — allows the team member to send a packet to a remote node

and receive a reply to determine if the team member sending the packet has a path to
the echo node. The absence of a reply within the specified time period can be used to
determine when a team member should be disabled. Possible values are Enabled or
Disabled. The default is Disabled. If Enabled, a valid echo node IP address must be
entered.

If the ActivePathEnabled is set to Enabled, the team is considered to be using
advanced teaming. A valid HP Integrity Essentials Intelligent Networking Pack
license must be installed on the target system for advanced teaming options to be
configured on the target server. If a valid license does not exist, an error message is
