NIC Teaming - Fault Tolerance
For the CompTIA Security+ Exam
NIC teaming uses multiple network connections from a single server. Instead of 1 Gbps, you now have 4 Gbps. This provides redundancy and fault tolerance, giving you uptime.
You must use LACP (Link Aggregation Control Protocol) on the switch to prevent a switching loop. Even if a port fails, you still have 3 Gbps.
