Reading through the 'INTERNALS" document in vswitchd directory, I saw a statement under "Active Backup Bonding" that I would like to get clarified.
Active Backup bonds send all traffic out one "active" slave until that slave becomes unavailable. Since they are significantly less complicated than SLB bonds, they are preferred when LACP is not an option. Additionally, they are the only bond mode which supports attaching each slave to a different upstream switch. The last statement implies that only Active Backup supports connecting to different upstream switches. This seems to be incorrect as our experience shows that we can connect to the different upstream switches for both "tlb" and "slb" modes using LACP. If someone can clarify, I am happy to update the section. -- Vinay Bannai Email: vban...@gmail.com Google Voice: 415 938 7576
