That sounds interesting.
I wonder if some specialized type of bonding interface could do
the trick. I'd guess you wouldn't need any specific driver
support. The bond would just always TX on pair A (with peer TX pair B).
I'd ask around on the bonding mailing list (assuming such thing exists)
and see if they have any suggestions.
Thanks,
Ben
