Teaming Nics
NightShade03
When you team nics on a server wouldn't it make sense that the server only be shown to have single ip address? As an example one of our servers has 3 nic cards that are teamed together as 10.0.0.70, however because they are different nics they all have different MAC addresses. When running wireshark earlier I noticed alot of entries stating duplicate ip (because of the same ip with different macs). Is this normal?

What make is the server?
Teaming usually makes the teamed interface the used L2 phsyical interface.

The only ones Ive teamed are Broadcoms built into the Dell servers. I beleive they had a new MAC just for the team.

HP's also add a new MAC that's one character off of the actual MAC addresses.

They are IBM blades (HS12). I figured it would be something like clustering where they get a virtual ip and a seperate mac. So I guess it is odd that there are "duplicate ip addresses".
