![]() If your switch (or other devices) is not properly configured, you will not be able to connect to the LoadMaster on the bonded interface and a message will appear similar to this in the LoadMaster log files: When using 802.3ad Link Aggregation on the LoadMaster interfaces, it is necessary that the link partner (usually a switch that the LoadMaster is connected to) is configured correctly to also use the same Link Aggregation protocol. No switch configuration is required for this. Each link can be connected to a different switch for full redundancy. Active-backup – This style of bonding allows for link redundancy but does not aggregate the bonded interfaces.Both interfaces must connect to the same switch and the switch ports must be configured to support this. 802.3ad – True bonding which aggregates the bandwidth of multiple interfaces.You can select the style of bonding in the Bonding mode drop-down list:.To add interfaces or to modify the bond type click Bonded Devices.In the main menu, select System Configuration and bnd*.Select the lowest indexed interface you want to use, for example, eth0.In the main menu, select System Configuration.To configure an interface for use with bonding, follow the steps below in the LoadMaster Web User Interface (WUI): Bonding eth0 with eth1 can lead to serious issues and is not supported. ![]() Enabling the Active-Backup mode generally does not require switch intervention.In order to add a link to a bonded interface, any IP addressing must first be removed from the link to be added.If you need VLAN tagging, add VLANs after the bond has been configured ![]()
