You work as a senior administrator at ABC.com. The ABC.com network consists of a single
domain named ABC.com. All servers on the ABC.com network have Windows Server 2012
installed.
You are running a training exercise for junior administrators. You are currently discussing NIC
Teaming.
Which of the following is TRUE with regards to NIC Teaming? (Choose all that apply.)
A.
It allows for traffic failover to prevent connectivity loss if a network component fails.
B.
It prevents bandwidth aggregation.
C.
The Windows Server 2012 implementation of NIC Teaming supports a maximum of 5 NICs in a
team.
D.
The Windows Server 2012 implementation of NIC Teaming supports a maximum of 32 NICs in
a team.
NIC teaming requires the presence of at least one Ethernet NIC. A team of one NIC may be used for separation of traffic using VLANs. Obviously a team with only one team member has no failure protection. Fault protection (failover) requires a minimum of two Ethernet NICs in the team. The Windows Server 2012 R2 implementation supports up to 32 NICs in a team.
