GA-EP45-DS3R/DS3 Motherboard - 84 -
4-8 Teaming
Dual LAN with Teaming functionality enabled on this motherboard allows two single connections to act as
one single connection for twice the transmission bandwidth, making data transmission more effective and
improving the quality of transmission of distant image(s). Fault tolerance on the dual LAN network
prevents network downtime by transferring the workload from a failed port to a working port.
• The speed of transmission is subject to the actual network environment or status even with Teaming enabled.
• To enable Teaming or Bonding (IEEE 802.3ad Link Aggregation) feature, it is required the connected network switch
or router device supports the IEEE 802.3ad LACP standard. Please refer to your network switch or router device
manual for further details.
