RE: How to configure a 2nd Enthernet port to a 2nd Eternet Switch for Load balancing/fail over

Will the traffic from one FTP go across both ports?
Or do I need to run multiple FTPs?

failure is easy, just unplug one of the cables, if different switches,
unplug the power

FTP is one way to test. maybe ftp some PTF images from different PC's
to the IFS.

do inbound and outbound tests.


I would think there are some traffic creation programs out there

Interface for that IP / Line was created, but I forgot to start it.
Normally autostarts from an IPL.

ETHAGG ACTIVE
ETHAGNET ACTIVE
ETHAGTCP ACTIVE QTCPWRK QSYS 793431

1) Now I need to create some processes that will send a large amount of traffic.
2) How can I test the load balance and the failure
