Load Sharing provides the ability to spread traffic over multiple slave interfaces, in addition to providing interface redundancy. All interfaces are always active.
Traffic is balanced between interfaces in a manner similar to the way load sharing balances traffic between VSX Cluster Members. Load Sharing operates according to either the IEEE 802.3ad or the XOR standard.
In Load Sharing mode, each individual connection is assigned to a specific slave interface. For a specific connection, only the designated slave interface is active. In the event of a failure of the designated slave interface, the traffic fails over to another interface, adding that connection's to the traffic it is already handling.
