NIC Teaming in a Hyper-V Environment
-
I've been teaming my NIC's recently but notice when you team you get 2 GB (expected) but then the VEthernet connection is only 1 GB.
Is there any real value if the hyper-v NIC only shows 1 GB?

Well, the team is on the hypervisor not on the VM, so that mean everything coming out of the hypervisor can get 2Gbps. So even if a VM is restricted by driver to 1Gbps, the multiple VMs on your hypervisor still can pass more than 1Gbps in total.

Do I need to do multiple Virtual NIC's for that? (1 for each Vmachine?)
