Creating a network interface card team for Windows Server 2016 or 2019
NIC teaming enables grouping between physical ethernet network adapters into one or more software-based virtual network adapters. These virtual network adapters provide improved performance and fault tolerance during a network adapter failure.
Perform either of the following procedures to create a NIC team for Windows Server 2016 or 2019:
- Create a NIC team for Windows Server 2016 or 2019
- Create a NIC team for Windows Server 2016 or 2019 using PowerShell
