No you can not.

What you are aiming at is some sort of load balancing / nic teaming. 
Your switch should also support this, preferably.

Subject: sending packet in round robin...

Hello list,

Can anyone tell me if i can route packets from two interfaces in Round
Robin 
fashion.

here is the scenario. i have two linux machines with two ethernet cards
each. 
i do an ftp from machine1(client) to request a file from
machine2(server). i 
can do this on either links separately. what i want is to that machine2
when 
sends an ftp packet, it send it in around robin fashion. that is it
sends one 
packet from one interface and the second packet from the second
interface.How 
can i achieve this.

Can i use two default routes... or may some kind of iptables...

appreciate an early response

Muhammad A Imam
