Ok, initial tests seem to show that a bonding defined like I had on my
very basic setup that I sent to the list is now working.

What doesn't seem to be working is if I set it up using bonding under
the vlans and then doing a bond of those, I mean:

iface bond0 inet manual
        bond-slaves eth0
        bond-mode 802.3ad
        bond-miimon 100
...
iface bond2 inet static
        address 192.168.1.2
        netmask 255.255.255.0
        bond-slaves bond0.1001 bond0.1002
        bond-mode active-backup
        bond-arp_validate 0
        bond-arp_interval 2000
        bond-arp_ip_target 192.168.1.1
...

Should this bond of bonds work?

I'm doing more tests to make sure that the basic eth0.1001 and
eth0.1002 works 100% after finding that the bond of bonds wasn't
working ok, just in case the basic was also failing, but at least the
double bond is failing and basic bond seems to work ok.

Regards.
