Configure NIC Teaming in VMware
First go to Windows Server 2012
then go to Server Manger
Click on All Server
then right click on your Server and click on NIC Teaming
then click new Task
and configure NEW TEAM
This allows you to name the team. I called mine “Hyper-V Team”
The defaults are “Switch Independent” (no advanced configuration necessary on the switch), “Address Hash” (will enable load balancing and bandwidth aggregation), and Standby Adapter (if configured, will enable on one NIC and the other will be used for failover only). Even though I am using these with Hyper-V, I will use the defaults. If this were a production deployment with a high density server, I’d give much deeper consideration to these settings based on my requirements.
Click OK, and our team config is complete!
We will Configure LACP
all thing is same just Select Teaming Mode : LACP
and Load Balancinf mode : Address Hash OR Dynamic
click apply and ok
NOW go on Switch and Select interfaces which are connected to server
int range fa0/0-4
channel group 1 mode active
end
