Thread: NIC Bonding Issues possible FIX

disclaimer:
i'm noob. i've converted linux in past year - enjoying immensely btw. don't yet know lot linux if have criticisms regarding findings please gentle me.

morning decided start researching nic bonding , poured on dozens of sites / pages regaling others' problems , bugs associated it.

many others out there not work me. after experimenting settings in /etc/network/interfaces file think may have found solution situations mine.

running ubuntu maverick 10.10 , set bonding between integrated via vt6120 nic , smc2-1211tx pci nic.

in least solved situation , bond , running - fast must say.

don't know if changes have made right or wrong - perhaps experience can determine community.

here /etc/network/interfaces contents:

code:

 # file describes network interfaces available on system  # , how activate them. more information, see interfaces(5).   # loopback network interface  auto lo  iface lo inet loopback   # primary network interface  auto eth0  iface eth0 inet dhcp   auto bond0  iface bond0 inet dhcp  address 192.168.1.176  netmask 255.255.255.0  bond-slaves eth0 eth1  # lacp confuration  bond_mode 0  bond_miimon 100  bond_lacp_rate 1

i hope of out there have been struggling bond issues.

next thing start researching if / how tweak connection , / or settings see if / connection speed - suggestions / advice appreciated.
