&gt; 
&gt; Kevin,
&gt; 
&gt; Bonded interfaces (link aggregation, channel bonding, and 
&gt; Etherchannel in Cisco lingo) is what you want, but the 
&gt; biggest issue with that is that the device your NICs connect 
&gt; to has to support it, and then be configured (from what I 
&gt; understand from our network tech, relatively easy on Cisco).
&gt; 
&gt; &gt;From the linux side, see:
&gt; /usr/src/linux-2.4/Documentation/networking/bonding.txt
&gt; 
&gt; It can be a little weird to get set up, since once activated, 
&gt; your two (or more) interfaces actually respond with the same 
&gt; MAC address (so if you're using DHCP for the IP addresses, 
&gt; make sure you know which MAC is used).  But this works very 
&gt; nicely on our file server here at the Center.

&gt; &gt; Subject: [ale] Load Balancing Across Multiple Interfaces
&gt; &gt; 
&gt; &gt; Hey all,
&gt; &gt; 
&gt; &gt; I have been googling for information on configuring two 
&gt; interfaces to 
&gt; &gt; respond to the same ip address in order to share the load 
&gt; of requests 
&gt; &gt; and possibly provide some fail-over.
&gt; &gt; 
&gt; &gt; I have found a lot of information on multiple ip's per nic but not 
&gt; &gt; multiple nics per ip.
&gt; &gt; 
&gt; &gt; Could someone point me in the right direction?
&gt; &gt; 
&gt; &gt; Thanks
&gt; &gt;
