Is that no longer the case?
My harsh experience is that server grade networking is not compatible with NetworkManager. Pair bonding, trunked VLAN's, and KVM bridging all remain unsupported by NetworkManager's GUI's and command line tools. You're welcome to my old notes on how to set these up manually, correctly, at https://wikis.uit.tufts.edu/confluence/display/TUSKpub/Configure+Pair+Bonding,+VLANs,+and+Bridges+for+KVM+Hypervisor. Those notes for THEL 6 work pretty well with Fedora 17, when I did so last year. -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
