Perform these steps (refer to the device vendor documentation):
1. Configure a first Bond interface (4) on two slave ports.
This Bond interface connects Network 1 to the Quantum Maestro
Orchestrators.
Configure the applicable settings, so that the traffic from and to
Network 1 passes only on this Bond interface.
2. Configure a second Bond interface (5) on two slave ports.
This Bond interface connects Network 2 to the Quantum Maestro
Orchestrators.
Configure the applicable settings, so that the traffic from and to
Network 2 passes only on this Bond interface.
3. With a cable (10), connect the first slave interface of the first Bond
(4) interface to an Uplink port (in our example, Port 3) on the
first
Quantum Maestro Orchestrator (15).
4. With a cable (11), connect the second slave interface of the first
Bond (4) interface to an Uplink port (in our example, Port 3) on the
second
Quantum Maestro Orchestrator (16).
5. With cable (12), connect the first slave interface of the second Bond
interface (5) to an Uplink port (in our example, Port 9) on the
first
Quantum Maestro Orchestrator (15).
6. With cable (13), connect the second slave interface of the second
Bond interface (5) to an Uplink port (in our example, Port 9) on the
second
Quantum Maestro Orchestrator (16).
