Carp for nic redundancy ?

[Ian Lord]

Hi,

from what I understand, carp is used to provide redundancy between 
two "servers" but can it provide redundancy for two nics in the same "server" ?


ex: if a server has 2 nics and one goes down, the virtual ip would 
get transfered to the other nic...

I'm looking for a way to "team" nic a bit like hp or intel does on 
windows, I tried stuff like netstat, one2many,  ether, etc and can't 
find a way to make this work so I am wandering if carp could help.

For now, since I didn't find anything that would work, I've put a 
couple of ips on my loopback interface, put each of my nics on 2 
differents subnet and used ospf for redundancy. It works perfectly, 
but I would prefer to have redundancy at layer 2 not layer 3

Thanks
