Adapter Teaming

Once a team has been created, the secondary NIC should be connected to an
active data port on the same subnet, right?

Thanks

Yes it should be; teaming is there for fault tolerance and load balancing.
You see the NIC's are both attaches to a switch, the software creates a
Transmit Load Balancing team, if for any reason those same NIC's are instead
connection to a switch that supports dynamic link aggregation (802.3ad), the
team will form a aggregated link that supports both transmit and receive
load balancing otherwise its just for outbound load.

They should be the same subnet and same IP. If you also setup load balancing, the speed will be double as displayed.

If the secondary nic is connected to a non routable vlan, such as a print
vlan, have I eliminated the whole scope of redundency with adapter teaming?

Thank you
