Hi,
I have searched the forums but cannot find a good answer. I need to setup a redundant network for a linux VM cluster.
- The Linux machines have bonded NIC's with 802.3ad running between 2x MikroTik CRS326-24G-2S+. There's a fiber crossover on the two Mikrotik's SFP ports. This works fine. When either switch goes off, the network still works the VM's still operate fine. /
* Is it possible to achieve aggregated traffic between the 2 switches?
- We have 1 internet connection at the moment, connected to a RB3011. From the RB3011 I have one cable to each CRS326-24G-2S+.
* How do I achieve proper redundancy, if either switch goes offline? I have tried 802.3ad on the RB3011 but that doesn't seem to work. Right now both switches are just in a bridge, but I am not sure if this is the right way todo it.
* Later on, when we have a 2nd uplink to the internet, I would like to have redundant WAN failover.
* If I add another RB3011, what do I need to setup, to have reduntant failover to the internet (with 1 uplink to each router), if the provider setup bonding on their side?
