# Multi-Channel Feature - Detailed Design Document

## 1. Overview

SMB3 Multi-Channel enables the use of multiple network connections between client and server, providing increased throughput, network fault tolerance, and automatic failover capabilities. This feature aggregates bandwidth across multiple NICs and provides seamless failover when network paths fail.

## 2. Protocol Specification Reference

```bash
helm install --set persistence.existingClaim=PVC_NAME minio/minio
```

### NetworkPolicy

To enable network policy for MinIO,
install [a networking plugin that implements the Kubernetes
NetworkPolicy spec](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/administer-cluster/declare-network-policy#before-you-begin),
and set `networkPolicy.enabled` to `true`.
