I am using the linux bonding, and on my new Centos-4 box I noticed that the ifconfig is slightly different.
Now the slave interfaces report that they have an ip address, but the same config files in CentOS 3.5 showed that the slave interfaces were up, but not assigned an interface.
Boinding is working, but I am just puzzled to see the address assigned
i.e [root@proj proj]# ifconfig bond0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:E0:81:2F:D4:48 inet addr:192.168.0.18 Bcast:192.168.0.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 UP BROADCAST RUNNING MASTER MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:6213602 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:3210436 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:8895154151 (8.2 GiB) TX bytes:249407197 (237.8 MiB)
