Rapid Recovery Core is producing broadcast storms
Description

When Rapid Recovery Core is in use for some operation, network broadcast storms impact LAN traffic. A WireShark trace shows a lot of ARP traffic.
Cause

This can be caused by NIC teaming. NICs using two different MAC addresses but sharing a single IP address can cause this.
Resolution

There are two possible solutions to this problem:
1. Remove the team and assign the network settings from the team to one of the member NICs
2. Have the customer's network team properly configure the team so it does not cause this issue. It may be necessary to call in Dell hardware support to assist.
