Either way, I would probably use a crossover cable for the DRBD
cluster.
I use 2 1Gb links bonded together, over crossover cables...
Could maybe even bond 2 cables together if I'm feeling adventurous!
Yes, recommended. That is what I do on all my clusters.
How do you bond the connections? Do you just use Linux kernel
bonding? Or some driver level stuff?
Linux kernel bonding, mode=4 (IEEE 802.3ad Dynamic link aggregation).
I'm guessing that since you're using a cross over cable, by just setting
up the bond0 interfaces as usual (As per this article
http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/linux-bond-or-team-multiple-network-interfaces-nic-into-single-interface.html),
you didn't need to do anything else, since there is no switch?
