The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Nic Bonding with bridge

Asked by tblinc in Linux Networking, Debian Linux, Miscellaneous Networking

Tags: Linux, Networking

Hi folks,

I have one Archlinux VirtualBox (Host) server. I installed two NIC card in my server, for bonding purpose. I need to set up the bond0 interface in bridge mode to share my NIC card to my Guest VMs.


So I make this first : http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Configuring_network#bonding

Secondly, I installed brctl-utils to create my bridge.

brctl addbr br0
ifconfig bond0 0.0.0.0
brctl addif br0 bond0
ifconfig br0 x.x.x.x netmask x.x.x.x

My rc.conf looks like this :

eth0="eth0 up"
eth1="eth1 up"
bond0="bond0 up"
br0="br0 10.0.0.45 netmask 255.255.255.0 up"
INTERFACES=(lo eth0 eth1 bond0 br0)

My /etc/conf.d/bonding

bond_bond0="eth0 eth1"
BOND_INTERFACES=(bond0)

My /etc/conf.d/bridges

bridge_br0="bond0"
BRIDGE_INTERFACES=(br0)

So with those settings, when I reboot my server, I have a warning that said : Can't add bond0 to bridge br0: Invalid argument

After the boot process, I tried to ping.. and it says : Destination Host Unreachable.

I tried /etc/rc.d/network restart... and everything seems to be working but I have this anoying error :
Illegal operation: The specified slave interface "Eth0" is already a slave Master "bond0", Slave "eth0":Error: Enslave failed
Illegal operation: The specified slave interface "Eth1" is already a slave Master "bond0", Slave "eth1":Error: Enslave failed

I try to ping :
Archlinux ~]# ping www.google.com
PING google.navigation.opendns.com (208.67.217.231) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from google.navigation.opendns.com (208.67.217.231): icmp_seq=1 ttl=52 time=59.0 ms
64 bytes from google.navigation.opendns.com (208.67.217.231): icmp_seq=1 ttl=52 time=59.0 ms (DUP!)
64 bytes from google.navigation.opendns.com (208.67.217.231): icmp_seq=2 ttl=52 time=75.9 ms
64 bytes from google.navigation.opendns.com (208.67.217.231): icmp_seq=2 ttl=52 time=76.0 ms (DUP!)

So I need to fix all those bugs

Thanks for your help

Frank !
