NG_ONE2MANY(4)
TRANSMIT ALGORITHMS
At this time, the only algorithm for determing the outgoing many hook is
a simple round-robin delivery algorithm. Packets are delivered out the
many hooks in sequential order.
In the future other algorithms may be added as well.
That would be nice -- in particular, links with different
characteristic capacities and latencies would be nice to bond --
as in a shared DS3 and a 256kb frame relay, my current problem.
We have an expensively idle backup frame relay link which could
be carrying "stuff" -- even simple parameters such as weighted
preference would suffice.
