Hello all, I wrote to the list because of a little of confusion about bonding devices in HA environment.
My network architecture is the following: - 2 redundant firewalls with heartbeat, 4 network nics - 2 redundant switches - 1 system behind the switch with 2 nic The system behind the switch have the 2 nic connected to the 2 switches. The two switches are connected each other >From each switch i have 2 cable connecting to the two firewalls Now, my question is: i have to set up a bonding device on each firewall, in mode 1 (like the example i have found here: http://linux-ip.net/html/ether-bonding.html#ex-ether-bonding-aggregation), but is needed some particular configuration of the switches to make this work correctly? Or is simply based on the interface link status? I have searched some help in the previous mailing list posts, but is not clear to me.... Any hint is well accepted.
