Yeah it's included, I use it all the time between GigE ports on my data
servers.


very cool! I'm planning to do something like this but have a questions.

Does bonding really use both interfaces for data transfer or use the
second interface only if the first one is maxed out?

Thanks,
Steve


AFAIK, it's pretty well load balanced in that it looks and acts like one interface. I believe the algorithm determines which interface is least used and sends it from there.
