ethernet bonding question

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I just set up a round-robin ethernet bond with 2 nics, it seems to be
working (both cards sending and receiving).  /proc/net/bonding/bond0 gives
the proper hardware addresses for eth0 and eth1 (from
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ethX I assume, where the hardware
addresses are set correctly), however, /sbin/ifconfig displays the same
hardware address for bond0, eth0 and eth1 (eth0's).  Should I be worried
that the hardware address for eth1 is displayed incorrectly, or is that just
a side-effect of the bond?

On a side note, the RX & TX numbers (from /sbin/ifconfig) for eth0 and eth1
seem to be somewhat unbalanced (eth1 receiving 5 times as much as eth0, TX
is exactly the same for both).  Is that a switch configuration issue or a
server configuration issue?

Thank you very much,

Michael
