Subject: On line Bonding configuration change fails
Hi,
My configuration is a follows:
| eth0 -------------->
Ububntu | eth1 --------------> Swith ------------> Other computer
Scenario:
• change the bond mode to active/backup
• unplug some of the cable
• plug-in the unplugged cable
• change bond mode to round robin
I can see that only one eth1 is sending data. When I unplug it the ping stops.
Is it a bug or some mis-configuration?
In the kernel ( /drivers/net/bond/bond_main.c).
In the function ‘bond_xmit_roundrobin
’
The code check if the bond is active via
‘bond_is_active_slave(slave)’ Function call.
Which actually checks if the slave is backup or active
What is the meaning of backup in round robin?
Correct me if I wrong but in round robin every slave should send a
packet, regardless of being active or backup.
Thank you,
Eduard
