I know you can use Virtual IP. It is more of a failover config than a "pairing" of adapters.

you get only one incoming band width, but if that insterface fails then IP automatically starts using the other one.

Hi All,

I'm looking into creating a highly available ethernet connection on an
IBM POWER M15.

This is called teaming or bonding in the Windows/Linux world - i was
not able to find out how this is called in the IBM i OS.

Can anyone help me out?

Regards,

Lukas
