I suppose that leaves me with just using pure software (for now, I have an 8 port Intel Pro 100 at home that I'll look at...), but I'm unable to get the increased throughput using mode=0. I did notice, however, while I was on the switch console it kept complaining about the interfaces flapping and re-learning addresses. My network guy here at work said that it was bad and either the switch or the bond(s) is misconfigured somewhere. Any hints as to where and or what kinds of things I should be looking at? --Tim ______________________________________________________ / The truth is what is; what should be is a dirty lie. \ \ -- Lenny Bruce / ------------------------------------------------------ \ \ \ \ /\ ( ) .( o ). _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
