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

34 | Only one port is active at a time and the rest of ports are used | |
