Load balancing
Load balancing enables the network resources to spread between two or more
network interfaces to optimize the network transfer and enhance the system
performance. It operates on layer 3 protocol (IP, NCP IPX) only.
Multicast/broadcast and other non-routable protocols such as NetBEUI can
only be transferred via the main network port.
Note: To optimize the network transfer speed of VioStor in load balancing
mode, please use a managed Ethernet switch and enable 802.3ad (or link
aggregation) on the ports of the switch that the Giga LAN ports of VioStor are
connected to.
