Adapter teaming on SLES10

Since one of the requirements for my current project is having NIC redundancy, I didn’t get around looking at the available " adapter teaming" (or adapter bonding) solutions available for Linux/SLES.

First I tried to dig into the Broadcom solution (since the Blade I first implemented the stuff uses a Broadcom NetXtreme II card) , but found out pretty soon that the basp configuration tool, which is only available on the Broadcom driver CD’s shipped with the Blade itself, pretty much doesn’t work.
