nic aggregation/teaming (AFT or similar)
Hi all, I want to find out if there is any support for NIC teaming (AFT) in FreeBSD. I found this post from 2000 http://groups.google.ca/groups?hl=enlr=threadm=8c72ap%24le4%241%40nnrp1.deja.comrnum=1prev=/groups%3Fq%3D%2522FreeBSD%2520does%2520NOT%2520support%2520Cabletron%27s%2520SmartTrunking%2522%26hl%3Den%26lr%3D%26sa%3DN%26tab%3Dwg Has there been any developments with this? We are using AFT with dual intel nics for switch redundancy on Linux boxes. I really want to try and move to FreeBSD, and this is the only major issue that I can see. Any information is greatly appreciated, -Jev P.S. I'm not subscribed to questions, so please CC any replies. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Has there been any developments with this? We are using AFT with dual intel nics for switch redundancy on Linux boxes. I really want to try and move to FreeBSD, and this is the only major issue that I can see. if you're looking for single-path redundancy and not increased throughput, you could use CARP (patches are here: http://people.freebsd.org/~mlaier/CARP/). the patches apply cleanly to 5.x, and seem to work just fine. if you need more information, check the list archives. good luck! joe ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
