I want connect 2 Server that have Win Srv 2012R2.
The first Srv have 2 gigabits NIC and the second Srv the same.
I need to increase bandwith between Srv1 and Srv2 through 2 Gigabit NIC Card in teaming setting.
In total i want obtain 2 Gbps link.
For obtain this i’ve configured 2 bonding interface in my routerboard RB850Gx2:
Bonding1 with Ether1 and Ether2 with 802.3ad Srv1
Bonding2 with Ether3 and Ether4 with 802.3ad Srv2
Are correct my settings ?
Do you need other information?
Thanks for your help

I would use switch indepedent teaming as MT is not good with LACP/Static teaming. And by the way - you must know that you will not have 2 gigabit per one TCP session. Only multiple sessions will be loadbalanced between cards - by the way I suggest to use load balancing algorithm: dynamic
And the second thing - if you want to have full speed when copying files between servers (shared folders / copy / paste) it already works even without switch as Windows server 2012 / R2 / 2016 use SMB 3.x multichannel. But it works only for SMB (file sharing) traffic not for other traffic.
