DL360p Gen8 - RHEL 7 utility for network cards teaming?

[javapowered]

In Windows Server 2008 R2 I've used https://h20566.www2.hp.com/portal/site/hpsc/template.PAGE/public/psi/swdDetails/?sp4ts.oid=5226971&spf_p.tpst=swdMain&spf_p.prp_swdMain=wsrp-navigationalState%3Didx%253D%257CswItem%253DMTX_9bbc220a013248f09e92d3c4c7%257CswEnvOID%253D4064%257CitemLocale%253D%257CswLang%253D%257Cmode%253D%257Caction%253DdriverDocument&javax.portlet.begCacheTok=com.vignette.cachetoken&javax.portlet.endCacheTok=com.vi... for network cards teaming and was very happy about it, everything works fine.

What should I use for teaming in RHEL 7?

I've never looked, but I don't think there is a GUI tool for bonding/teaming in Linux.  I haven't set this up in RHEL 7 yet, but I ran across these articles in a quick search. Linux has generally called this bonding, looks like Red Hat has introduced a new way of doing this with RHEL 7.

As I understood "bonding" is kind of "deprecated" and If i care about latency I should just use "teaming", is that correct?

Maybe someone else will chime in. I haven't looked at the new 'teaming' in RHEL 7 to see who/what/why it is any different/better than what has always been called bonding under Linux.
