Hi all,

I want to find out if there is any support for NIC teaming (AFT) in 
FreeBSD. I found this post from 2000
http://groups.google.ca/groups?hl=en&lr=&threadm=8c72ap%24le4%241%40nnrp1.deja.com&rnum=1&prev=/groups%3Fq%3D%2522FreeBSD%2520does%2520NOT%2520support%2520Cabletron%27s%2520SmartTrunking%2522%26hl%3Den%26lr%3D%26sa%3DN%26tab%3Dwg


Has there been any developments with this? We are using AFT with dual 
intel nics for switch redundancy on Linux boxes. I really want to try 
and move to FreeBSD, and this is the only major issue that I can see.


Any information is greatly appreciated,
-Jev
