SLAVE=yes Step:3 Restart the Network Serviceīelow command will restart the network service and will bring above changes into the effect. Please refer this for Different Modes in NIC bonding Step:2 Edit the NIC interface filesįor ifcfg-enp0s3 ~]# vi /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-enp0s3įor ifcfg-enp0s8 ~]# cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-enp0s8

In my example i am using ‘ mode=5′ which is used to provide fault tolerance and load balancing. Specify the IP address, Netmask & bonding modes as per your requirement. ~]# modinfo bondingĬreate a bond interface file ( ifcfg-bond0) under the folder “ /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/” network-scripts]# vi ifcfg-bond0 To list the bonding module info, use following command.
