[ovirt-users] Re: VM interface bonding (LACP)

Correct!

VM ---- Host ==== Switch stack

|------- 4x 1Gbit interfaces bonded over LACP
The traffic for all of the VMs is distributed across the host's 4 bonded
links, however each VM is limited to the 1Gbit of its own virtual
interface. In the case of my proxy, all web traffic is routed through it,
so its single Gbit interface has become a bottleneck.
It was my understanding that the virtual interface showing up as 1 gig
was just a reporting thing (something has to be put in the speed field).
I don't think the virtual interface is actually limited to 1 gig, the
server will just pass packets as fast as it can.
