Actually, I know next to nothing about link aggregation. How do ARP
requests get solved? Would an attached L3-aware switch see the same IP
address on two ports? Since "loadbalance" chooses ports based on a hash,
it will probably start dropping 50% of the outgoing traffic if one of
the two links dies?
