Ok,

 

Thanks for this quick answer but I don't think that is a good response to my problem.

 

[As you can read here](https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/7/html/Networking_Guide/ch-Configure_Network_Bonding.html https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/7/html/Networking_Guide/ch-Configure_Network_Bonding.html ) : The active-backup, balance-tlb and balance-alb modes do not require any specific configuration of the switch. Other bonding modes require configuring the switch to aggregate the links.

 

That what we need. I understand when you said to me that you don't recommand this setup but I think that the only one that will fit my need.

 

Regards,
