Abstract
With the number of users wanting to share and access data across enterprise networks and the Internet is increasing dramatically. network administrators now find that their server and network backbones lack the capacity to handle the increased traffic. To achieve highly efficient connectivity between backbones and servers, and higher bandwidth of server network interface, we provide a method named as Ethernet Links Bundling technology (EIB). It is a high-speed networking solution that builds upon Fast Ethernet technology to provide a dramatic increase in network performance. In this paper, the implementation methods of the EIB technology are given and performance experiments are conducted. The results show that the network bandwidth can be scaled by the bundling of multiple Ethernet links and more reliable network connectivity can be guaranteed. And we also demonstrated that the EIB technology can be practically used in real applications such as FTP and SAMBA.
