Just a test.
Team driver does not belong to Red Hat.
I am also not Redhat employee.

You can make tests with team driver to find the root cause, then fix it.

IMHO, you can build bonding driver and gretap driver, make tests with
them, then find out where the packets are dropped, finally find out
the root cause.
This is a direct method.

It is up to you about how to find out the root cause.
