Subject: Channel bonding with e1000

Hi,

I have a brief problem and would ask for a little assistance:

On a few data servers we intend to do channel bonding. The boxes have
two NICs on the motherboard and two extra ones on an expansion card:

04:00.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 631xESB/632xESB DPT LAN
Controller Copper (rev 01)
04:00.1 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 631xESB/632xESB DPT LAN
Controller Copper (rev 01)
05:02.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82546GB Gigabit Ethernet
Controller (rev 03)
05:02.1 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82546GB Gigabit Ethernet
Controller (rev 03)

My simple question would be: Does it matter which two ports I can use to
channel together when using in a set-up with MTU=9000?

Thanks for a brief answer

Carsten
