fault tolerance). I found SDB wiki article https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Bonding which seems pretty outdated. Shouldn't it be rather deleted as there is appropriate section in <https://doc.opensuse.org/documentation/leap/reference/html/ book.opensuse.reference/cha-network.html#sec-network-iface-bonding> ? The settings seems pretty straightforward, should be fine, I hope. :-) Does anyone have experience with this?
Yes. Do you have some more concrete questions?
Documentation <https://doc.opensuse.org/documentation/leap/reference/html/ book.opensuse.reference/cha-network.html#sec-network-iface-bonding> shows on the print screen of YaST tab Bond Slaves, but when I edit the card (Network Card Setup), on the Address tab I can't change device type and I'm missing Bonding Slaves tab of the Network Settings module.
Additionally - bonding slaves cannot have address. You need to configure them as "No Link and IP Setup (Bonding Slaves)". After that create new device of type bond and select these interfaces as slaves. You assign IP address to bond interface.
The documentation starts with adding new device, but I see both network cards (eth0 with static IP and eth1 which should be bonded). Am I supposed to remove the eth1 device in YaST and add it again? Or how to proceed?
Your assumptions are wrong. You need to create a new device, YaST will show a list of options to pick from amongst which "Bonding". The rest is in the instructions. Mind, both current devices have to have an eth cable connected.
Ah! Thank You both! This wasn't unclear for me from the documentation. Then it went really smooth. -- Vojtěch Zeisek https://trapa.cz/ Komunita openSUSE GNU/Linuxu Community of the openSUSE GNU/Linux https://www.opensuse.org/
