Hi there,
Has anyone implemented load balancing on a AIX Host with specifying two
default gateways of equal cost. though I have'nt managed to locate a
configuration document as such.
i want to do balance the load of outgoing packets over more than one
ethernet cards evenly.
could u tell me the way to do load balancing on AIX host connected to multi links.
i have 2 Questions 2 ask u.
Quest (1):
one adapter configured with IP ( 192.168.0.20 ) connected to one ISP (192.168.0.1)
other adapter configured with IP address( 172.168.0.20) connected to different
ISP{ 172.168.0.1) ,
such that both adapters configured as a Etherchannel defined should distribute
packets in equal order / Round Robin way .
How to configure the above situation? any Idea?
Quest (2) :
Though, its possible to configure the above situation with "Etherchannel"
setting "Mode" as a " round_robin " mode . but, the adapters should be cabled
with Etherchannel-enabled switch. Is this Etherchannel switch Required? can i
configure without the switch ? i dont want to put a switch after etherchannel ?
how to handle this case to get efficient usage of bandwidth ?
Regards,
Kiran Maraju
