Ethernet bonding is linking the aggregate of two or more ether port on a router which can be achieved fron Interface menu of the router using winbox or command prompt.
Ethernet bonding is a method used for grouping multiple physical links together to create a larger virtual link. There's a protocol named LACP (Link Aggregation Control Protocol), which is an active protocol that runs on Ethernet links that are configured for bonding. Ethernet bonding is useful for achieving-
Additional bandwidth between connected devices
Redundancy in case an Ethernet cable fails which increases resilience
Load balancing of the connections
In computer networking, the term link aggregation applies to various methods of combining (aggregating) multiple network connections in parallel in order to increase throughput beyond what a single connection could sustain, and to provide redundancy in case one of the links should fail. A Link Aggregation Group (LAG) combines a number of physical ports together to make a single high-bandwidth data path, so as to implement the traffic load sharing among the member ports in the group and to enhance the connection reliability.
In Mikrotik Bonding is a technology that allows aggregation of multiple ethernet-like interfaces into a single virtual link, thus getting higher data rates and providing failover.

Let us assume that we have2 NICs in each router (RouterOne and RouterTwo) and want to get maximum data rate between2 routers.
[sinix@RouterOne] interface bonding> add slaves=ether1,ether2
[sinix@RouterTwo] interface bonding> add slaves=ether1,ether2
[sinix@RouterOne] ip address> add address=..0.1/ interface=bonding1
[sinix@RouterTwo] ip address> add address=..0.2/ interface=bonding1
[sinix@RouterOne] interface bonding> /ping..0.2
..0.2 ping timeout
..0.2 ping timeout
..0. byte ping: ttl= time=2 ms
..0. byte ping: ttl= time=2 ms
And dont forget the bonding interface not responding instantly, wait few seconds ;)
Ethernet bonding is used to aggregate the throughput of multiple links. This helps in effective maximization of the links so that one is not only used when the primary is done but they boost the output capacity.
general it is used to increase throughput and failover
