filefor 2.6 kernels file by adding these lines:
where:
■bond0 is the bonding device.
■max_bonds is the number of bond interfaces to be created.
■mode specifies the bonding policies.
■miimon is the frequency in milliseconds that MII link monitoring will occur.
Refer to Linux documentation for more information.
2. Load the bonding driver:
3. Configure bond0 interface.
In this example, bond0 is the master of the two interfaces eth2 and eth3.
