Does anyone have successful experience with implementing active/backup
setup with dual Intel EtherExpress Pro/100 ? Meaning when link goes down
on first interface IP will be transfered to second one.
Yet another solution - enslave both NIC ports to a bridge interface (you'll need brctl
Hi,
I can tell you about the Intel ians driver: I set it up to do FEC (which
doesn't yet give me any improved speed). This also does Fail-over very
well. I guess that the intel drivers will also support what you want (ALB
or one of the other modes). In any case you need to use ians.

Hi,
I wrote once a silly script to do what you want with the old bonding
driver (that didn't support autodetection of link down). It uses
mii-diag (or whatever program you tell it) to check if the link is up or
down, and ifconfig the interface accordingly. I checked it with the
eepro100
