bonding theory question | |

Hello All, I am currently using bonding with 2 NICs (using mode 0). Its been working well, but I am trying to understand how it works (I am a total newbie). mode=0 (balance-rr) Round-robin policy: Transmit packets in sequential order from the first available slave through the last. This mode provides load balancing and fault tolerance. So I have 2 NICs (1 NIC attached to switch A, 2nd NIC attached to switch B). I have 1 virtual interface. bon0. Suppose data is being pushed out, it will go with 1st NIC and when it gets overloaded it will use 2nd NIC. The bonding driver will be responsible for it. Similar to the push, the pull will be very similar. The data gets pulled and the bonding driver will assemble the packets together? Does this sound right? Sorry for a newbie question...
