Tziporet,
    In order to get as much cooperation as possible I think that we
should post an RFC about that before implementing it & before getting
the implementation in OFED 1.1. We looked into the more standard
implementation that uses bonding device and tried to find out what the
issues are. More then that I'm not sure that what you, guys, suggest
will work if we have multicast applications running.
