<DIV><SPAN class=560462720-10092008><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>I
have several dual ported MT25208 4x DDR HCA's. These use IPoIB for
server/server IP communications and SRP for storage. Each port of the HCA is
connected to separate switches for data path redundancy.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=560462720-10092008><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>What I
am looking to do is bond these interfaces to provide failover. The extra
bandwidth would be a plus, but I don't saturate the fabric with my current
applications as it is now.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=560462720-10092008><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>If
there is a way to bond on the IB level, then that would be best as it would
cover my SRP SAN connections as well.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=935320018-10092008><FONT face=Arial size=2>I know this may
be off topic for this list, but does anyone have a toll that will trunk
IPoIB connections? This is fairly straightforward in Linux, but for Windows,
I have no clue.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
