Wiki gives options with ifenslave and systemd-networkd, and there is an
option to do it with post-up and ip route.
ifenslave is broken due to #991930, but it can be easily patched.
Which way is least surprise for a Debian user (for you)?
1. bond-slaves in interfaces
Example:
auto bond0
iface bond0
inet static
bond-slaves eth0 eth1
bond interfaces imply a nice static config, so the interfaces
file is definitely least surprising.
Thank you for feedback!
Now I need to choose between `bond-slave` and `slave` stanza.
There are two pages in wiki, contradicting each other:
https://wiki.debian.org/Bonding#Configuration_-_Example_1
Says to to use `bond-slaves`
and
https://wiki.debian.org/NetworkConfiguration
says to use 'slaves' directive.
It looks very confusing.
