Hey guys, is this possible?
I have two Dell 1950s, both have 4 gigabit ports (2 onboard 2 w/ broadcom card)
One box is Freenas and one is ESXI, I've setup ISCSI on Freenas and it works great however i'd love to add some more bandwidth. What I don't have is a managed switch supporting LACP.
Can I connect 2 ports on each server directly with ethernet cable and setup LACP? perhaps just for ISCSI traffic? or maybe someone has a better idea.
Freenas box is sharing CIFS for media storage and ISCSI to my ESXI box
Thanks
