Thanks Roger. Do you have two "bond" interfaces? Did yast set that up?
YaST sets up what you tell it to set up.
Knowing nothing about bonding I was asking why two bonded interfaces show up.
You need multiple interfaces if your host is connected to multiple separate L2 domains. Whether these interfaces are physical or logical is an entirely different question. The primary use case for bonding is redundancy. Whether this is actually useful depends on your infrastructure and applications. While bonding may increase bandwidth, whether this will result in better performance again depends on your infrastructure, applications, traffic patterns etc.
