Are there any settings required on a network switch for different bonding modes?

决议

Mode	Bond	Team
Round-Robin	Yes	Yes
Balance-XOR	Yes	NA
Broadcast	Yes	Yes
802.3 LACP	Yes	Yes
Active-Backup	No	No
Balance-TLB	No	NA
Balance-ALB	No	NA
Loadbalance	NA	Yes

active-backup (Mode 1), balance-tlb (Mode 5), and balance-alb (Mode 6)

These bonding modes do not require any specific configuration of the switch.

802.3ad (Mode 4)

This bonding mode requires that the switch have the appropriate ports configured as an 802.3ad aggregation. The precise method used to configure this varies from switch to switch, but, for example, a Cisco 3550 series switch requires that the appropriate ports first be grouped together in a single EtherChannel instance, then that EtherChannel is set to mode "lacp" to enable 802.3ad (instead of standard EtherChannel).

balance-rr (Mode 0), balance-xor (Mode 2) and broadcast (Mode 3); Loadbalance (teamd runner)

These bonding modes require that the switch have the appropriate ports grouped together. The nomenclature for such a group differs between switches, it may be called an "EtherChannel" (as in the Cisco example, above), a "trunk group" or some other similar variation. For these modes, each switch will also have its own configuration options for the switch's transmit policy to the bond. Typical choices include XOR of either the MAC or IP addresses. The transmit policy of the two peers does not need to match. For these three modes, the bonding mode really selects a transmit policy for an EtherChannel group; all three will interoperate with another EtherChannel group.
