multi nic redundancy to increase availability

[zhicheng wang]

hi,

we have a dell pe 2650 and other dell servers, all
with two ether cards, running redhat EL AS3. i need to
make use of both cards so that the down time may be
reduced.

it seems that there are a few different ways to do so.
binding two cards to the same IP seems complicated. is
it possible to give each card different ip, but the
same domain name? i remembered something like each
card's IP must be on different subnet? but I want them
to be on the same subnet. any suggestions?

thanks
cheng
