PE1850/1950/2950 + RHEL4/5 + Nic teaming ?

[Moe, Justin]

There is plenty of information on Ethernet bonding, which I believe is
what you are referring to.

In a nutshell, it does the same thing as windows does, the only real
difference as far as the system is concerned is that the interface is
named bond$FOO vs eth$FOO.

Search for 'linux ethernet teaming', there is a huge amount of
documentation out there on it.  We implemented it here on a 2950 III
running Debian stable and it's working a treat.

Subject: PE1850/1950/2950 + RHEL4/5 + Nic teaming ?

Hello all,

I'm looking for informations about nic teaming management on PE Servers
running RHEL4/5 and drivers updates.

Can someone explain me how it works under Linux ?

Thanks a lot

Nb : I usually use BACS (Broadcom nic) or intel pro set (Intel nic)
management software under windows...but never had to do it under linux,
so are there such softs for Linux too ? do PE servers come with
something special from DELL template ?

Florent
