On the client I have two ethernet devices, and i am using ifenslave to create a bonding interface. When I send data from the server brctl forward it to any of both interfaces, or for both at the same time. I know that there are many configurations of ifenslave, but I would like to modify the internal arp table of brctl, to select the interface which should forward the data. Is it possible??

Why do you need this?
Why can't you do it with normal connectivity?
