[CentOS] Problem with Bonding Driver

[Tim Verhoeven]

Hi,

I configure bonding interfaces a bit differently.

I put only this line into /etc/modprobe.conf :

alias bond0 bonding

And use this in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-bondX :

DEVICE=bond0
BOOTPROTO=none
IPADDR=192.168.100.1
NETMASK=255.255.0.0
ONBOOT=yes
BONDING_OPTS="miimon=100 mode=1 primary=eth0"

I've got setup running like this in mode 1 (failover) and in mode 4
(LACP). Unfortunately I don't have any systems with more then 1 bond
and I don't have anything spare to set this up. But you can try your
setup using this way to configure it, maybe that helps.

Regards,
Tim

Hoping the problem magically goes away by ignoring it is the
"microsoft approach to programming" and should never be allowed.
