<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Another thing, depending on your nic,
using a bond may kill things like hardware offload functionality -
ran into that before too. At 1gbe it's probably a wash as it's
hard to tax a cpu at that, but do that at 10gbe without some
strategic irq pinning and you'll be hard-pressed to get anywhere
above 4gbe on the phy.<br>

The backend network these servers are connected to are a Cisco
Catalyst<br>
4705R loaded with WS-X4524-GB-RJ45V modules.<br>
<br>
All my research says to use a network bond running LCAP for
best<br>
compatability/performance with this hardware. it all seems to
be running,<br>
but it is kind of weird that Proxmox would want me to create
the bridge for<br>
the VMs to run on kind of makes sense just feels weird to run
a bond<br>
inside bridge.<br>
<br>
If anyone who has worked with proxmox has a better suggestion
please let me<br>
know.<br>
<br>
Thanks for your time.<br>
