how upgrade linux bonding driver ?
I would like to get a more recent release to take benefit from latest fixes and improvements.
Is there a way to upgrade the driver, or is the upgrade to RHEL5 mandatory ?
thanks much.

Re: how upgrade linux bonding driver ?
We are looking how to upgrade this driver because, as stated in http://switch.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/bonding/bonding.txt, "Starting with version 3.0.2, the bonding driver has logic to
suppress duplicate packets".
And we want a fix for this "duplicated packets" issue, that can be observed in some specific network configurations.

Re: how upgrade linux bonding driver ?
So the only supported by RH option is upgrading to RHEL5.
For sure it is possible technically to upgrade the kernel and/or compile custom kernel with the new driver, but we'll get unsupported system in this way.
