I am using artnet to control 3 Catalyst servers. In addition I need to access the content drives on the servers via Gigabit Ethernet (constantly). As Artnet runs at 10t it would drag the speed down across the network. I would like to install a 2nd NIC for the pupose of running a Gigabit network alongside the Artnet network. How does Catalyst behave when a 2nd NIC is installed? Is there a NIC which is preferable?

Any help and advice is much appreciated

Thanks,
Sven
