How Windows Server 2012 implements dual-NIC binding

Before Windows Server 2012 we were on the server if we were to implement a dual-NIC binding, we would need the appropriate software for the server manufacturer, but now the advent of the powerful Windows Server 2012 saves us all the hassle, Because the operating system itself has a dual-NIC binding function, how to achieve this function, the following we use the experiment to explain to you:
