802.3ad is the standards track replacement for EtherChannel, thus it is not what you are looking for. What you are asking for is L2 failover. OpenBSD's trunk(4) is such an implementation. I don't see anything in FreeBSD that would have the same functionality. _______________________________________________ freebsd-net@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
