Your interface, well bonding driver, is somehow confused with the arp entries.You probably need to clear your arp tables or if you can reboot the machine, that will do it too. Also, if you have a managed switch or a firewall in between, would also be a good idea to do that too, but it's probably not the culprit. On my end, the switch was the culprit.
Looking at the site tips that you followed, would suggest you try mode=1 or active-backup first, and see if goes away. This is eseentially an active-standby mode. If your switch has LACP or 802.3ad or "etherchannel" in cisco terminology support, mode=4 is the best. -- regards, Andre | http://www.varon.ca On Tue, Nov 18, 2008 at 11:22 AM, John Osena <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi All, > > I have successfully set-up NIC bonding (load balanced round-robin) with the > help from > http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/linux-bond-or-team-multiple-network-interfaces-nic-into-single-interface.html > and it rocks! > > But now I'm getting lots of martian sources lines in the /var/log/messages. > Here are the lines: > > Nov 18 12:55:57 hostname kernel: martian source 192.168.1.11 from > 192.168.1.11, on dev bond0 > Nov 18 12:55:57 hostname kernel: ll header > ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:00:30:48:9b:26:60:08:06 > > Not sure what's going on here.
