Hi,,

    I am installing Symantec 5230 installation with media server role. Master on window VM. Appliance configuration consist, 4 x 1Gig, & 4 x 10Gig. I need to know if I can Bond all 4 x 10Gig into one bond. I saw that it gives us an option to bond, but just wanted to confirm if anyone have done this before. 

 

Thanks in advance..

Hello,

Yes, you can bond all 4 if you wish. Please refer to HOWTO94124 for further information on NIC port bonding.

Thanks Chashock and Symterry, do you also recommend to bond 10gig ports and 1gig under same bond. Dont you think this may impact overall IOps. Or, do u recommend to bond 1Gig & 10gig ports in two different bond. Thanks..

Definitely do not mix speeds in a bond, whether on an appliance or any other platform.  You will be very unhappy with the results.
