Figure 82: Network Page: Bonding Details
1. If necessary, click the Show link to show the bonding details table.
2. For each available bonded device ( bond0 , bond1 , and so on), select two or more
Ethernet ports with the same link speed to assign to the bond. Or select Not Bonded to
leave a port unassigned to any bond.
If no ports are assigned to a bond, the bond cannot be configured. That is, settings
cannot be entered for the bond in the
Interface Details or IP Address tables because no
Ethernet ports are assigned to the device.
All ports assigned to the same device are bonded together into a single logical port. For
example, if you select
bond0 for port eth1 and port eth2 , both ports are bonded together
in the bond0 device. A bonded device can contain two or more ports.
All ports associated with a bond must have the same link speed (1GbE or 10GbE).
3. For each bonded device, specify the bonding mode:
To maintain network connectivity, the switch connected to the ETERNUS
CS800 must be configured to use the same bonding mode. The best time to
change the bonding mode on the switch is during the next reboot of your
system, after saving the new network settings. Changing the bonding mode
on the switch before saving these settings and rebooting may result in the
loss of network connectivity to the system.
