| 摘 要： | INTRODUCTION Because of the critical role that computing sys-tems and networks play in today’s business envi-ronment, it is not surprising that business success often goes to the company with the best information and the most efficient process for delivering that in-formation. As the principal tool for business col-laboration, corporate LANs are a vital resource in enabling today’s enterprises to adopt competitive strategies. The number of users wanting to share and access data across…

| Abstract: | With the increase of high-speed network backbones, the performance of server’s network interface gradually becomes a pivotal
factor. This study provides a method called Ethernet Links Trunking (ELT) technology for achieving efficient connectivity
between backbones and servers, which provides higher bandwidth and availability of server network interface. The overview
of the ELT technology and the results of performance experiment are presented in this paper. Findings showed that the network
bandwidth can be scaled by multiple ELT technologies so that more reliable network connectivity can be guaranteed. Some crucial
techniques such as Adapter Load Balancing (ALB) and Adapter Fault Tolerance (AFT) are presented in this paper. Experimental
results showed that parallel channels of Fast Ethernet are both necessary and sufficient for supporting the data rates of
multiple concurrent file transfers on file server.
