I'm administering a 2008 Hyper-v server I didn't build. It was a 4-port gigabit NIC card. From what I understand, Windows 2008 server does not support NIC teaming.
I assumed that if I plugged in more than one port the new nic is added to the virtual switch and load balancing is done. And, when I did this I found 2 entries in DNS with the Hyper-V server's name on them.
Is this the correct way to do this? I'd like to use all 4 ports and have all of them available to pass traffic to the 3 hosted VMs, but couldn't figure out if all the nics are assigned to the virtual switch or verify load balancing is occurring.
If this isn't possible I'd like to at least assign one nice to each VM and one to the Hyper-V server.
