Re: enable bonding



But I don't know how to enable ifenslave at boot?
# ifenslave bond0 eth0 eth1

Can I put that in /etc/network/interfaces?

Sorry, by Googling I found some options.
Is it correct below?

# apt-get install ifenslave
In /etc/modules i put "bonding".
In /etc/network/interfaces I put this:
auto bond0
iface bond0 inet static
    address 1.2.3.4
    netmask 1.2.3.4
    gateway 1.2.3.4
    up ifenslave bond0 eth0
    up ifenslave bond0 eth1
    post-down ifconfig eth1 down
    post-down ifconfig eth0 down




See, you're smarter than I am :)
It looks ok to me, I forgot about this (from the man file) in my previous post:
up command
              Run command after bringing the interface up.

So it seems to me like you're ready to roll. Why don't you give it a go with:

/etc/init.d/networking restart

Think I'll wait until I can get to the server :)
And thanks a lot for all your help. I appreciate it!
I'll let the list know if it worked, so I don't bother you any more :)

Best regards,
Jacob
