Channel Bonding: link aggregation across 2 switches




There are 2 switches on the data centre which is a switch managed by the
hosting company. Our servers have dual NICs in them and they are currently
configured using active-backup. Thus, only one slave is active at any time.

AFAIK, the switch is meshed together to provide redundant connections.

In this scenario, is it possible to have have link aggregation across 2
different switches that are meshed together ?
