We currently are running a FreeNAS server in our repair shop, we are hoping to upgrade the NIC to a 4-Port Gigabit card. The idea would be to bond/link together the 4 ports for higher throughput and load balancing to and from clients.
We currently only have an unmanaged Netgear GS116 switch for our LAN, and from what I can tell on Netgear's support website there is no way to configure link aggregation.
FreeNAS has the configuration to bond/link multiple NICs, however even if I do this will it work on the non-configured switch?
