I have two:
Netgear M7100-24x
I have 4 Supermicro Superservers with Dual 10Gb NICs (eth3 and eth4)
My switches are completely separate, and they both tie into the same vLAN. So they are on the same network without a cable connecting the two.
My server are in active/backup bonding modes for eth3 and eth4.
This traffic is for CEPH network only.
Should this have been Broadcast mode instead?
I just seen the new Proxmox Tutorial video, and I think I'm supposed to use broadcast mode to utilize both nic's in a proper High Availability scenario? Or will there be an issue with same dropped transmission?
The uplink from each switch is 10Gb as well.
The ultimate goal is High Availability, and there is redundancy to the point of switch failure, but not NIC failure. If a NIC fails, it's talking to the opposite switch and coming back through the uplink switches to transmit to the remaining CEPH servers.
