hello, I see that you can get a single network card with 2, 3, 4 connections. Can you happily make each one on a separate private address block ? 10.0.0.0, 172.16.0.0, 192.168.0.0
Yes, and more: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Link_aggregationOne feature of link aggregation is increased throughput -- two physical connections can work together as one logical connection that is twice as fast.
But the killer feature is redundancy -- if every device is connected to two different switches, you can do maintenance on one switch and the network will remain up via the other switch.
