Dan, Edy,

Could you guys answer this?

IIUC, the requirements are:

stream the traffic of few VLANs(network roles) through a single bond
be able to bind a VLAN to a bond slave with an option of fallback
have redundancy
assign different QoS to every VLAN (my addition)

I guess this is a new RFC that we do not support currently, but would we be able to provide in any future?

Subject: [ovirt-users] Network redundancy with Manual balancing per VLAN
To: users@ovirt.org

Hello,

In VMware it is possible to bond two network interfaces and for each Portgroup (equivalent to a VLAN) is possible to tell which of the physical interfaces underneath it you wish the traffic to flow primarily and which stays as secondary(bond mode=1 equivalent). So for certain VLANs (Management, Live Migration, etc) is possible to force traffic flow via one physical NIC of the bond and for other VLANs (Virtual Machine's traffic) outs via the other NIC with failover to each other should a cable or switch fails.

This is specially good for better utilize the fewer NICs available and still have redundancy.

In oVirt it is also possible to have bonds, but would it still be possible to do that same and favor the traffic per VLAN basis ? I guess it is something related to Linux Bond module but perhaps someone has done this already.

Thanks

Fernando
