Ethernet Bonding

Wed Feb 23, 2011 5:36 pm

When using a bonding interface on a routerboard, is it possible to connect the bonded ethernet slaves to an unmanaged switch?

I'm really confused on what kind of networking hardware is compatible with bonded ethernet interfaces on routeros.

Thanks In Advance

It is not going to work with unmanaged switch.
In 802.3ad mode you still need to specify on which ports LACP will be running.
