Bonding
,Additionally, link integrity monitoring may be performed.
== Setting up bounding bonding on a RHEL/CentOS 4 or 5 system ==
===Create a bond0 configuration file===
===Modify eth0 and eth1 config files===
Open both configuration configurations using vi (text editor ) and make sure the file read reads as follows for interface eth0 interface
# vi /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
</pre>
Open the eth1 configuration file using vi text editor:
vi /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1
Make sure the file read reads as follows for interface eth1 interface:
<pre>
DEVICE=eth1
BOOTPROTO=none
</pre>
Save the file and exit to shell prompt.
=== Load bond driver/module ===
Make sure the bonding module is loaded when before the channel-bonding interface (bond0) is brought up. You need to modify the kernel modules configuration file:
# vi /etc/modprobe.conf
options bond0 miimon=100
</pre>
You can learn more about all bonding options in the kernel source documentation file "Documentation/networking/bonding.txt"
=== Test the configuration ===
== Traffic shaping ==
Where is no specifics here, see [[Traffic shaping with tc]].
