I've been playing with load balancing IP traffic using the ethernet bonding driver.
Basically I've got a server with 2 on boards intel 1G network interfaces and I've connected them to a Foundry Fastiron switch with both interfaces on the switch configured to be a trunk.
The current setup *seems* to work fine ( the server in question hosts an apple darwin streaming server) but I've noticed that there are some patches for the 2.4 kernel on sourceforge.net to upgrade the bonding driver to support 802.3ad.
The problem I've got is that when I try and apply the patches to the RH kernel source 2.4.20-13.0 a number of the patches don''t work.
So ....
should I be applying the patches to say, the 2.4.20 kernel source available from www.kernel.org instead of the RH source?
Has anyone got 802.3ad configured and working?
TIA Alex
