NIC-Teaming for WinCC OA

Post by rxs »

Hello?
In help files (on requirements) I see next limitation
NIC-Teaming
NIC teaming is not supported. Deactivate the NIC teaming for all connections (Redu, Dist, UI).
What does it means?
We tested UI on remote project wincc oa which connected to server with project wincc oa and also using nic teaming. And it looks like nic teaming working fine i.e. after down one of network card (part of teaming) on server the remote project work and get/set value wo problem.
Can we meet any problem with NIC teaming on WinCC OA in future?

In the past some problems occured when using NIC teaming and the project configuration must be modified.
At ETM we do not make any tests with a network using NIC teaming and therefore it is officially not supported.
When using NIC teaming you also need special hardware.

Thank you Leopold, we will test all connections separately.
