Re: Network teaming under linux
Blatently stolen, but it's the correct procedure:
Stolen from here:http://www.databasejournal.com/features/oracle/article.php/3652706
To setup bonding involves simple four tasks.
TASK 1: First, you need to create bond0 config file:
# vi /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-bond0 Append following lines to DEVICE=bond0
BOOTPROTO=static
ONBOOT=yes
IPADDR=11.65.21.82
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
GATEWAY=11.65.21.1
USERCTL=no
TASK 2: Modify eth0 and eth1 config files:
Open both configuration using VI text editor and make sure file read as follows for eth0 and eth1 interfaces.
[root@linuxhost network-scripts]# more ifcfg-eth0
DEVICE=eth0
ONBOOT=no
MASTER=bond0
SLAVE=yes
USERCTL=no
[root@linuxhost network-scripts]# more ifcfg-eth1
DEVICE=eth1
ONBOOT=no
MASTER=bond0
SLAVE=yes
USERCTL=no
TASK 3: Load driver module:
Make sure bonding module is loaded when the channel-bonding interface (bond0) is brought up. You need to modify the kernel modules configuration file so that it looks like the one below.
[root@linuxhost network-scripts]# more /etc/modprobe.conf
alias bond0 bonding
options bond0 mode=balance-alb miimon=100
TASK 4: Test configuration by modprobe and service network restart commands.
[root@linuxhost network-scripts]# modprobe bonding
[root@linuxhost network-scripts]# service network restart
Let me know if you need more help.

Please can u explain the meaning of the following line:

Rgds,
K
These are the different options for the bond0 interface. The "mode=balance-alb" means that the bonding driver will try to Active Load Balance (alb) the data across all of the ethX interface that are part of bond0. "miimon=100" will force the bond0 interface to 100Mbps.
I lost the login I had before, and due to an email address change at work, couldn't recover the password, hence the change in username as well...

Re: Network teaming under linux
So miimon=100 means 100 FDX mbps
and miimon=1000 means 1000 Mbps
if i don't include miimon than it is on AUTO ?

Re: Network teaming under linux
I guess I could have put a link to a bonding.txt doc:
http://www.mjmwired.net/kernel/Documentation/networking/bonding.txt
but i thought that is what google was for.
