This video goes over step by step on how to enable LACP (Link Aggregate Control Protocol) on a Cisco switch. LACP bundles multiple ports on a switch a aggregates the speeds to logically combine them as if they were a single port. So for example, If you have 2 ports both running at 1Gbps and combine them using LACP, the logical link would a 2Gbps.
The command to enable LACP on a Cisco switch is shown in the video as well.

NIC Teaming with a feature in Windows Server that acts similar to LACP. It utilizes multiple ports and logically combines them to make a single, double the bandwidth, port on your Server. This video goes over step by step how to enable NIC Teaming for Windows 2012 R2, however the same steps can apply Windows Server 2016 if you wanted to do NIC teaming on there as well.
