Question:
Why does my team lose connectivity for the first 30 to 50 seconds
after the primary adapter is restored (fall-back after a failover)?
Answer:
During a fall-back event, link is restored causing Spanning Tree
Protocol to configure the port for blocking until it determines that it can
move to the forwarding state. You must enable Port Fast or Edge Port
on the switch ports connected to the team to prevent the loss of
communications caused by STP.
