A iperf seemed to pick a single eth0 or eth1 but not both interfaces and
use it to send out traffic on all 4 difference processes. Ideally how would
one allow a single application (in this case iperf) with multiple
threads/processes to send 2Gbit worth of traffic? Ideally to a logical
interface and it's hash automatically to two difference eth0 and eth1?

I've looked at setting (krt_prefsrc) to source the address as the dummy0
interface on each host. Would that be the answer?

thanks,
