Teaming your network cards is a measure to ensure the availability of your network. When one card fails, e.g. due to a broken cable, the other card can take over and continue seamlessly.
Here is an example configuration for the SUSE Linux distribution:
/etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-bond0
BOOTPROTO='dhcp' BROADCAST='' ETHTOOL_OPTIONS='' IPADDR='' MTU='' NAME='Unex ND010' NETMASK='' NETWORK='' REMOTE_IPADDR='' STARTMODE='auto' UNIQUE='rBUF.H7G5bqPjD8F' USERCONTROL='no' _nm_name='bus-pci-0000:02:0c.0' BONDING_MASTER=yes BONDING_SLAVE_0='bus-pci-0000:02:0c.0' BONDING_SLAVE_1='bus-pci-0000:02:0d.0' BONDING_MODULE_OPTS='miimon=100 mode=1 use_carrier=0'
