Default need suggestion!!!

Hi all,
Let me show my equipments first:

Cisco router 7200 series.
Two 24port cisco catalyst switches model no. WS-C2960G-24TC-L.
Four dell-servers each having RHEL4 installed in it wth two NICs.

Now what I need is a high availablity network.
So I thought of using bonding in each of the Linux servers. In every server, the eth0 will be connected to switchA and eth1 will be connected to switchB.

Now I want some expert suggestion in the topology that I am trying to build.

What would be the requirement or support needed in the switches to support this kind of Bonding?
Would the router be also capable of supporting bonding with two switches, as there are three Gigabit ethernet ports on the router also..


w/regards,
Jayesh
