From the datasheet it follows that the DL160 G6 \ DL165 G7 has a built-in dual port network card HP NC362i on Intel 82576. I have a HP Proliant SE316M1 (aka DL160 G6, but only SE). Put the Intel E1G42ET. I want to integrate the ports in the link aggregation of both the integrated network card and the Intel E1G42ET and use it as a software router. The load will be big (for me)): ~ 2Gbps at 300Kpps. Should I use the built-in network card or better buy another intel E1G42ET? I would put something on an Intel 82599 but there is nowhere to stick it in (in the bright future I will do so)).

    In principle, the chip is one and it is possible to aggregate them, but then it is better to install the driver from Intel and not Vendorsky, if you believe the document, 300Kpps will pull, on large packages they drop to 1.5Mpps, in life you get about 600Kpps on UDP
