Bonding protocol

Bonding ( short for "Bandwidth On Demand INteroperability Group") protocol is a generic name for a method of bonding or aggregation of multiple physical links to form a single logical link.[1] Bonding is the term often used in Linux implementations: on Windows based systems the term teaming is often used, and between network-devices we talk about link aggregation, LAG and Link Aggregation Control Protocol.
