Windows 10 NIC Teaming Answer!!

by Shawn Cottier Aug 5, 2015 11:40PM PDT

Exactly what I was looking for!!

I have a Broadcom 5709c Nextreme II NIC that was teamed on windows 7. After the upgrade to windows 10... nothing. The Broadcom software will no longer allow me to create a team. This way created the virtual adapter without any 3rd party software. Very Nice!

Win 10 is only Failover NIC Teams.

by Shawn Cottier Nov 28, 2015 9:41AM PST

Well I have to change my answer. Windows does create the NIC Team. However when I log into my Switch (Cisco SG 200-0 the team never goes online in the LAG table. So it looks like windows is only building a failover team and not a 802.1ad team.
