3d249d4c JP |
3 | ---help--- |
4 | This allows one to create virtual interfaces that teams together | |
5 | multiple ethernet devices. | |
6 | ||
7 | Team devices can be added using the "ip" command from the | |
8 | iproute2 package: | |
9 | ||
10 | "ip link add link [ address MAC ] [ NAME ] type team" | |
11 | ||
12 | To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module | |
13 | will be called team. | |
