Understanding Network Interface Bonding

Published on Nov 27, 2025 Updated on Jul 31, 2026 3 views

Bonding (or link aggregation) combines multiple physical network connections into a single logical connection.

For Redundancy

If one physical connection in the bond fails, traffic continues flowing through the remaining ones without an outage.

For Increased Throughput

Some bonding configurations combine the bandwidth of multiple connections, effectively multiplying available capacity for a single server.

Where It's Used

Enterprise servers and data center infrastructure commonly use bonding for both the reliability and performance benefits, rarely relevant for typical shared hosting customers directly.
