As others have said, the teaming part is pretty well supported on the server and switch end.
You mentioned fiber, but that won't improve the speed, since a gig over fiber is the same as a gig over copper, except for the distances involved. -----Original Message----- From: Oliver Marshall [mailto:oliver.marsh...@g2support.com] Sent: Friday, April 17, 2009 9:27 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Net port bonding Hi chaps, We have a client whose workers do mainly cad based rendering and shovel massive files around the network (TB files aren't uncommon). Certain workers need more network throughput than their aging gigabit network can offer them. The options appear to be fibre, though for workstations, and just a handful, this seems to involved a large setup cost and may be overkill, and also bonding of ports. I like the last idea as it would allow certain workstations to bond multiple GB network ports together to get more throughput. Has anyone else done anything similar to this on the workstation end? Any words of wisdom ?
