Hey all,
I recently decided to try fedora as it supports newer hardware out of the box. While tinkering around i wanted to create a bonded interface, but with no luck.
i tried different guides i found on the fedora wiki and other websites. I used the nmcli to configure the bond and slave interfaces but it does not show up. then i tried manually configuring the interfaces in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts. after this i added /etc/modprobe.conf with the allias and tried ifup bond0.
and get
“Error: unknown connection ‘/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-bond0’.”
my configuration for ifcfg-bond0
BONDING_OPTS=“downdelay=200 miimon=100 mode=802.3ad updelay=200”
TYPE=Bond
BONDING_MASTER=yes
PROXY_METHOD=none
BROWSER_ONLY=no
BOOTPROTO=dhcp
DEFROUTE=yes
IPV4_FAILURE_FATAL=no
IPV6INIT=yes
IPV6_AUTOCONF=yes
IPV6_DEFROUTE=yes
IPV6_FAILURE_FATAL=no
IPV6_PRIVACY=no
IPV6_ADDR_GEN_MODE=stable-privacy
NAME=“bond0”
UUID=7bbc1c1b-f277-43a7-8cb7-a7f7f6249210
DEVICE=bond0
ONBOOT=yes
somehow it looks like the gnome network manager (via settings menu) is commanding and just throws on the standard auto wired connection profile.
clearly im doing something wrong or missing a step. Could someone point me to the right guide or toss in an opinion?
