Today we are going over how to create a high performance and highly available linux network bond in #proxmox with 2x40Gb QSFP connections to our Mellanox SX6036 switch. Using bonds in Proxmox in a #homelab network in this configuration will allow us to fully max out the PCIe generation bus on a dual port Mellanox ConnectX-3 40GbE #networking card.
