I'm try to bond a few interfaces together with the hopes of getting increased throughput, and I'm using a cisco Catalyst 2900 as the switch. I've tried using mode 0, 5, and 6 with nothing special on the switch, and mode 4 with some ports "trunked" together (I have a feeling that the "trunking" that the 2900 does is not 802.3ad, as it disabled the ports it saw as redundant), yet xfer speeds always cap out at about 10MB/s.
Has any body accomplished bonding with increased throughput as the goal, with or without (without might be preferable) doing something special on the switch (preferably the afore-mentioned Catalyst 2900, as that is what I have to work with as a non-sactioned side-project ;)?
IEEE 802.1Q trunking Supported. Cisco IOS Release 11.2(8)SA5 (Enterprise Edition Software)
Inter-Switch Link (ISL) trunking Cisco IOS Release 11.2(8)SA4 (Enterprise Edition Software)
set fastether-options 802.3ad (((try that)))?
I have a Cisco Cert but that does not mean anything. Have not worked on ciso equipment in over 4 years.
