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

No you can not.
What you are aiming at is some sort of load balancing / nic teaming.
Your switch should also support this, preferably.

Hi,
that what you would like to do is called link aggregation ( IMHO ).... here
is a link that explains how to make this:
