Be sure to check portchannel capabilities of your switch before proceeding. Are you seeking more bandwidth or reliability? RHEL5 with two e1000's connected to a Catalyst 6509, LACP portchannel configured. modprobe.conf: options bonding mode=4 miimon=100 alias bond0 bonding ifcfg-bond0: DEVICE=bond0 ONBOOT=yes ifcfg-eth0: DEVICE=eth0 ONBOOT=yes MASTER=bond0 SLAVE=yes ifcfg-eth1: DEVICE=eth1 ONBOOT=yes MASTER=bond0 SLAVE=yes ifcfg-bond0.102: DEVICE=bond0.102 ONBOOT=yes IPADDR=x.x.x.x NETMASK=y.y.y.y VLAN=yes ifcfg-bond0.297: DEVICE=bond0.297 ONBOOT=yes IPADDR=x.x.x.x NETMASK=y.y.y.y VLAN=yes Never bothered to figure out why any changes to bond0 (main interace for this box, defaultgw behind it) require a reboot to work. I suppose it could be corrected but this meets my needs. -- Jussi _______________________________________________ rhelv5-list mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/rhelv5-list
