I've changed the switch out, unfortunately to something that I know doesn't support 802.3ad, but I'm still unable to get aggregate link bandwidth using mode 0, 2, and 6. I'm using scp to test the bandwidth, one machine with one interface, one with two bonded, and one with three bonded. No matter the combination of who is sending/receiving the files, no increase in throughput. Would using a x-over cable on two machines, using two interfaces each, with 802.3ad (or other mode...) on both hosts work? My inclination is that the aggregating protocol needs a shared bus to negotiate, and putting each channel on it's own bus (x-over cable) would defeat that... --Tim ______________________________________________ < Support Bingo, keep Grandma off the streets. > ---------------------------------------------- \ \ \ \ /\ ( ) .( o ). _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
