The behavior of the bonded interfaces depends upon the mode; +generally speaking, modes provide either hot standby or load balancing services. +Additionally, link integrity monitoring may be performed. + +************* +Configuration +************* + +Common interface configuration +============================== + +.. cmdinclude:: ../_include/interface-common-with-dhcp.txt + :var0: bond + :var1: bond0 + +Member Interfaces +================= + +.. cfgcmd:: set interfaces bonding member interface + + Enslave `` interface to bond ``. + +Bond options +============ + +.. cfgcmd:: set interfaces bonding mode <802.3ad | active-backup | + broadcast | round-robin | transmit-load-balance | adaptive-load-balance | + xor-hash> + + Specifies one of the bonding policies. The default is 802.3ad. Possible + values are: + + * ``802.3ad`` - IEEE 802.3ad Dynamic link aggregation. Creates aggregation + groups that share the same speed and duplex settings. Utilizes all slaves + in the active aggregator according to the 802.3ad specification. + + Slave selection for outgoing traffic is done according to the transmit + hash policy, which may be changed from the default simple XOR policy via + the :cfgcmd:`hash-policy` option, documented below. + + .. note:: Not all transmit policies may be 802.3ad compliant, particularly + in regards to the packet mis-ordering requirements of section 43.2.4 + of the 802.3ad standard. + + * ``active-backup`` - Active-backup policy: Only one slave in the bond is + active. A different slave becomes active if, and only if, the active slave + fails. The bond's MAC address is externally visible on only one port + (network adapter) to avoid confusing the switch. + + When a failover occurs in active-backup mode, bonding will issue one or + more gratuitous ARPs on the newly active slave. One gratuitous ARP is + issued for the bonding master interface and each VLAN interfaces + configured above it, provided that the interface has at least one IP + address configured. Gratuitous ARPs issued for VLAN interfaces are tagged + with the appropriate VLAN id. + + This mode provides fault tolerance. The :cfgcmd:`primary` option, + documented below, affects the behavior of this mode. + + * ``broadcast`` - Broadcast policy: transmits everything on all slave + interfaces. + + This mode provides fault tolerance. + + * ``round-robin`` - Round-robin policy: Transmit packets in sequential + order from the first available slave through the last. + + This mode provides load balancing and fault tolerance. + + * ``transmit-load-balance`` - Adaptive transmit load balancing: channel + bonding that does not require any special switch support. + + Incoming traffic is received by the current slave. If the receiving slave + fails, another slave takes over the MAC address of the failed receiving + slave. + + * ``adaptive-load-balance`` - Adaptive load balancing: includes + transmit-load-balance plus receive load balancing for IPV4 traffic, and + does not require any special switch support. The receive load balancing + is achieved by ARP negotiation. The bonding driver intercepts the ARP + Replies sent by the local system on their way out and overwrites the + source hardware address with the unique hardware address of one of the + slaves in the bond such that different peers use different hardware + addresses for the server. + + Receive traffic from connections created by the server is also balanced. + When the local system sends an ARP Request the bonding driver copies and + saves the peer's IP information from the ARP packet. When the ARP Reply + arrives from the peer, its hardware address is retrieved and the bonding + driver initiates an ARP reply to this peer assigning it to one of the + slaves in the bond. A problematic outcome of using ARP negotiation for + balancing is that each time that an ARP request is broadcast it uses the + hardware address of the bond. Hence, peers learn the hardware address + of the bond and the balancing of receive traffic collapses to the current + slave. This is handled by sending updates (ARP Replies) to all the peers + with their individually assigned hardware address such that the traffic + is redistributed. Receive traffic is also redistributed when a new slave + is added to the bond and when an inactive slave is re-activated. The + receive load is distributed sequentially (round robin) among the group + of highest speed slaves in the bond. + + When a link is reconnected or a new slave joins the bond the receive + traffic is redistributed among all active slaves in the bond by initiating + ARP Replies with the selected MAC address to each of the clients. The + updelay parameter (detailed below) must be set to a value equal or greater + than the switch's forwarding delay so that the ARP Replies sent to the + peers will not be blocked by the switch. + + * ``xor-hash`` - XOR policy: Transmit based on the selected transmit + hash policy. The default policy is a simple [(source MAC address XOR'd + with destination MAC address XOR packet type ID) modulo slave count]. + Alternate transmit policies may be selected via the :cfgcmd:`hash-policy` + option, described below. + + This mode provides load balancing and fault tolerance. + +.. cfgcmd:: set interfaces bonding min-links <0-16> + + Specifies the minimum number of links that must be active before asserting + carrier. It is similar to the Cisco EtherChannel min-links feature. This + allows setting the minimum number of member ports that must be up (link-up + state) before marking the bond device as up (carrier on). This is useful for + situations where higher level services such as clustering want to ensure a + minimum number of low bandwidth links are active before switchover. + + This option only affects 802.3ad mode. + + The default value is 0. This will cause carrier to be asserted (for 802.3ad + mode) whenever there is an active aggregator, regardless of the number of + available links in that aggregator. + + .. note:: Because an aggregator cannot be active without at least one + available link, setting this option to 0 or to 1 has the exact same + effect. + +.. cfgcmd:: set interfaces bonding hash-policy + + * **layer2** - Uses XOR of hardware MAC addresses and packet type ID field + to generate the hash. The formula is + + .. code-block:: none + + hash = source MAC XOR destination MAC XOR packet type ID + slave number = hash modulo slave count + + This algorithm will place all traffic to a particular network peer on + the same slave. + + This algorithm is 802.3ad compliant. + + * **layer2+3** - This policy uses a combination of layer2 and layer3 + protocol information to generate the hash. Uses XOR of hardware MAC + addresses and IP addresses to generate the hash. The formula is: + + .. code-block:: none + + hash = source MAC XOR destination MAC XOR packet type ID + hash = hash XOR source IP XOR destination IP + hash = hash XOR (hash RSHIFT 16) + hash = hash XOR (hash RSHIFT 8) + + And then hash is reduced modulo slave count. + + If the protocol is IPv6 then the source and destination addresses are + first hashed using ipv6_addr_hash. + + This algorithm will place all traffic to a particular network peer on the + same slave. For non-IP traffic, the formula is the same as for the layer2 + transmit hash policy. + + This policy is intended to provide a more balanced distribution of traffic + than layer2 alone, especially in environments where a layer3 gateway + device is required to reach most destinations. + + This algorithm is 802.3ad compliant. + + * **layer3+4** - This policy uses upper layer protocol information, when + available, to generate the hash. This allows for traffic to a particular + network peer to span multiple slaves, although a single connection will + not span multiple slaves. + + The formula for unfragmented TCP and UDP packets is + + .. code-block:: none + + hash = source port, destination port (as in the header) + hash = hash XOR source IP XOR destination IP + hash = hash XOR (hash RSHIFT 16) + hash = hash XOR (hash RSHIFT 8) + + And then hash is reduced modulo slave count. + + If the protocol is IPv6 then the source and destination addresses are + first hashed using ipv6_addr_hash. + + For fragmented TCP or UDP packets and all other IPv4 and IPv6 protocol + traffic, the source and destination port information is omitted. For + non-IP traffic, the formula is the same as for the layer2 transmit hash + policy. + + This algorithm is not fully 802.3ad compliant. A single TCP or UDP + conversation containing both fragmented and unfragmented packets will see + packets striped across two interfaces. This may result in out of order + delivery. Most traffic types will not meet this criteria, as TCP rarely + fragments traffic, and most UDP traffic is not involved in extended + conversations. Other implementations of 802.3ad may or may not tolerate + this noncompliance. + +.. cfgcmd:: set interfaces bonding primary + + An `` specifying which slave is the primary device. The specified + device will always be the active slave while it is available. Only when the + primary is off-line will alternate devices be used. This is useful when one + slave is preferred over another, e.g., when one slave has higher throughput + than another. + + The primary option is only valid for active-backup, transmit-load-balance, + and adaptive-load-balance mode. + +.. cfgcmd:: set interfaces bonding arp-monitor interval
