Debian traditionally uses the `ifup` and `ifdown` commands to
configure the network. The file `/etc/network/interfaces` contains the
-whole network setup. Please refer to to manual page (`man interfaces`)

traffic.
-For the most setups the active-backup are the best choice or if your

+If your switch support the LACP (IEEE 802.3ad) protocol then we recommend using
+the corresponding bonding mode (802.3ad). Otherwise you should generally use the
+active-backup mode. +

+If you intend to run your cluster network on the bonding interfaces, then you
+have to use active-passive mode on the bonding interfaces, other modes are
+unsupported.
The following bond configuration can be used as distributed/shared
storage network. The benefit would be that you get more speed and the
