[ofw] IPoIB Trunking/Bonding ?

[Sufficool, Stanley]

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.
 
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.
 
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.
 
Thanks,
Stan Sufficool

		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.
