The cisco bit is useful - Linux is not an island!

Cool. But that is probably debian unstable?

That's how you should read LARTC - its not just routing.

No it won't. LVS and new bridgeing are both mentioned in the HOWTO, the
bonding isn't. LVS has fine documentation of itself and only needs to be
mentioned. The new bridgeing code might need some more content in the HOWTO.
I would be very happy if somebody could to a writeup of the new bonding
code.
I don't see how that diverts anything too much. Volunteers welcome!
