Did you unplumb e1000g0 first? You cannot place an interface in an IPMP group if it has existing DHCP leases. > Two other things I don't understand. > - why add second alias to ipmp0 ? Your original configuration had two DHCP-acquired IP addresses, so my example provided the same. It will also enable inbound packets to be load spread, since one IP address will be bound to e1000g0 and the other will be bound to e1000g1; you can see these bindings with `ipmpstat -an'. > - why is it requestion IP with mac=0 ... what happens if I have > multiple ipmp0 hosts... i guess the DHCP server needs to be a bit > smarter and not simply assign by IP by MAC address The DHCP server will assign by DHCP client ID, and dhcpagent(1M) will automatically generate unique client IDs even for the same IP interface, and even if that IP interface does not have a hardware address. -- meem _______________________________________________ networking-discuss mailing list networking-discuss@opensolaris.org
