| Hi All
|
| I have two bond interfaces namely, bond0 and bond1. bond0 has two
| ethernet interfaces associated with it and bond1 also has two ethernet
| interfaces associated with it.
|
| Now i create a bridge interface namely br20 (20 being the VLAN) and
| assign it a IP Address , subnet mask and the default gateway. I will use
| this IP to reach the server. So it is like a management bridge for me.
| Secondly this bridge is associated with the bond0.20
|
| Can i create another bridge namely cr20 ( 20 being the VLAN ) on the
| bond1 interface ? This bridge does not have any ip address associated
| with it. I just want to use it for guest VMs.
|
| Is this the correct way to configure ?
|
| Thanks

We create bonds on the interfaces, VLANs on the bonds and then bridges on the VLANs. Works just fine here. I don't think it matters much if you do it your way.
