 http://wiki.centos.org/TipsAndTricks/BondingInterfaces does exist, you
 may want to put it in sync and check for accuracy as it seems to deal
 with CentOS 4 only.

Which would lead to the question: Do you, Robert P. J. Day, want to
update that page to something more current? :)

Probably the same reason that some in CentOS feel a need to 
maintain a local wiki chock full of non-unique restatement of 
matter NOT unique to CentOS, rather than 'upstreaming' 
improvements to flow down to all below

There is ancient precedent from the outside counsel to the 
upstream asserting that they do NOT want 'deep linking' into 
the upstream's content, but ...

particularly:

 Moreover, our client does not allow others to provide links 
 to our client's web site without permission.

[CentOS-docs] suggestion for HOWTO: bonding multiple NICs

2010-10-07 Thread Robert P. J. Day

  a student in my RHEL admin class this week specifically asked how to
use multiple NICs to add fault tolerance.  a good question, i thought.
perhaps adding a short HOWTO on that wouldn't be out of line,
something like this:

http://www.how2centos.com/how-to-set-up-network-bonding-with-centos-5x/

  i could even add that as a lab for future classes, where i simply
add two USB network adapters to the student's machine and make it an
exercise to set up bonding across them.  just a thought.
