I'm also seeing this and have carried out some tests. The following interfaces config works across Lucid, Maverick & Natty but fails on Oneiric: == auto bond0 iface bond0 inet static bond-slaves none bond-mode 802.3ad bond-miimon 100 address 10.153.107.22 netmask 255.255.255.0 gateway 10.153.107.1
auto eth0 iface eth0 inet manual bond-master bond0 bond-primary eth0 eth1 auto eth1 iface eth1 inet manual bond-master bond0 bond-primary eth0 eth1 == That config is based on the example from the ifenslave docs (/usr/share/doc/ifenslave-2.6/examples/two_hotplug_ethernet), with the mode swapped out. During those tests I also tried out bonding mode 1 (active-standby), this works fine in every release tested including Oneiric. I can confirm the Alberts' findings that bringing up the bond manually works around the problem in ifupdown/ifenslave. ** Tags added: pse -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/889423 Title: 802.3ad bonding not configured correctly To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ifupdown/+bug/889423/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
