Abstract

See full text

Embodiments of the present invention provide configurations and techniques for determining, by link aggregation logic, whether a load of network traffic communicated across a team of aggregated links allows inactivation of one or more aggregated links of the team, wherein the team of aggregated links is coupled with a plurality of network interface cards (NICs). On determining that the load of network traffic communicated across the team of aggregated links allows inactivation of the one or more aggregated links of the team, the link aggregation logic is configured to power off or place into a power save mode one or more NICs of the plurality of NICs corresponding to the one or more aggregated links. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
