Currently doing a group task of building a high performance network with redundancy, woohoo.
Sort of logical topology I have so far:
Two switches with 2 aggregated links across the network providing up to double speed, unfortunately the load balancing algorithm is a bit naff based on source/destination MACs being randomly allocated to links and (from what I can see) doesn't support round robin for link sharing.
Also another link on the spanning tree protocol in case of one of those high performance links goes down, a backup link can pop online instead, since a limitation of the linking aggregation protocol I'm using appears to kill off the whole connection if one dies, which is a little weird.
Apart from that, I'm fine! Feeling a little ill again, but just working away because I'm away down south for a 2 day course next week. Woohoo.
Hows everyone today?
