[ale] Load Balancing Across Multiple Interfaces

[Chris Egolf]

Kevin -

Intel has their proprietary Advanced Network Services (ANS) adapter teaming 
stuff that provides fault tolerance and load balancing.

http://support.intel.com/support/network/adapter/ans/

I've only used it with Intel network adapters, but they claim to offer 
multi-vendor teaming of non-Intel cards.

I'm also looking for a non-proprietary solution since some of our newer hardware 
doesn't come w/ Intel ethernet cards.
