Bonding two interfaces I'm trying to simulate **bonding** between two interfaces `eth0` and `eth1`. So basicly, I need these two interfaces to be on the **same subnet**. My question here is: How can I achieve this?

from <

> # ifconfig bond0 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.0.0
> # ifenslave bond0 eth0 eth1

however, you have to be sure the same bonding protocol is also set on remote equipment.

There are seven modes for bonding configuration.

These affect which non failed interface will be used to receive and transmit packets.

On network equipment side, you also specify that port `Fe0/10` and `Fe0/11` (for instance, in a pseudo Cisco notation) are part of a bond.

Network equipment will discover the IP, the same way it discovers the usual link.
