Hello I have two linux machines connected via 2 dsl lines (bonded) 192.168.0.1-eth0-dsl---2Mbit---dsl-eth0-192.168.0.2 ^-eth1-dsl---2Mbit---dsl-eth1-^ so the final figure is something like this: 192.168.0.1-bond0---4Mbit---bond0-192.168.0.2 I can only use arp monitoring for fail checking - if one dsl line fails - automatically use only the other one. I set up everything correctly (i think), but it doesn''t seem to work. When one of the links fails it doesn''t detect it at all: # cat /proc/net/bonding/bond0 Ethernet Channel Bonding Driver: v2.6.0 (January 14, 2004) Bonding Mode: load balancing (round-robin) MII Status: up MII Polling Interval (ms): 0 Up Delay (ms): 0 Down Delay (ms): 0 Slave Interface: eth0 MII Status: up Link Failure Count: 0 Permanent HW addr: 00:80:1e:13:41:03 Slave Interface: eth1 MII Status: up Link Failure Count: 0 Permanent HW addr: 00:80:1e:13:39:05 both machines are running 2.4.26 kernel the configuration for both is the same (only the IPs are different): modules.conf: alias bond0 bonding options bond0 mode=0 arp_interval=1000 arp_ip_target=192.168.0.2 miimon=0 startup script: /sbin/modprobe bond0 /sbin/ip link set eth0 up multicast off /sbin/ip link set eth1 up multicast off /sbin/ip link set bond0 up multicast off /sbin/ip addr add 192.168.0.1/30 brd + dev bond0 /sbin/ifenslave bond0 eth0 eth1 Is this a bug, or I am doing something wrong? -- Anton Glinkov network administrator _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@mailman.ds9a.nl http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/

Ideally, this would include messages from setup and when you test the failure. If it''s really big, then feel free to send it off list. Also, what are your network cards and dsl switches? -J --- -Jay Vosburgh, IBM Linux Technology Center, fubar@us.ibm.com _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@mailman.ds9a.nl http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/
