Summary

Information on Teaming and and VLANs on Windows® 10 OS

Description

Every Windows* update, the VLAN configuration is completely removed and has to be re-entered.

Resolution

Major Windows® 10 updates can cause issues with Intel® Advanced Network Services (Intel® ANS) VLANs and Teams. This is not not a bug or Intel-related issue.

The Intel Ethernet Team is responsible for validating and submitting new driver packages to Microsoft for inclusion on Windows Update*. Microsoft does not support Team and VLAN configuration on Windows 10. Team and VLAN configuration for Intel® Ethernet Adapters on Windows 10 is supported via our Intel® PROSet/Wireless Software. Intel® PROSet is not included on Windows Update.
