Hi all,
I'm in the process of reconfiguring a FC5 Proliant servers dual nic
But before I actually change anything ( server is in production ) I
need some help with my setup as this is the first time I've ventured
into this :-)
I hope some of you gurus can help me with this and point out if this
is the correct way, or if there's an easier/better way to do it, and
if I'm missing anything in the setup.
Any input/help would be greatly appreciated
All the best

Below is the setup I've seen on another running server:
cat /etc/modprobe.conf
alias bond0 bonding
options bond0 mode=1 miimon=100
alias eth0 tg3
alias eth1 tg3
alias scsi_hostadapter cciss
[root@localhost ~]# cat /root/ifcfg-eth0
# Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5704 Gigabit Ethernet
DEVICE=eth0
BOOTPROTO=none
ONBOOT=yes
MASTER=bond0
SLAVE=yes
USERCTL=no
TYPE=Ethernet
[root@localhost ~]# cat /root/ifcfg-eth1
# Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5704 Gigabit Ethernet
DEVICE=eth1
BOOTPROTO=none
ONBOOT=yes
MASTER=bond0
SLAVE=yes
USERCTL=no
TYPE=Ethernet
[root@localhost ~]# cat /root/ifcfg-bond0
DEVICE=bond0
BOOTPROTO=none
ONBOOT=yes
USERCTL=no
IPADDR=0.0.0.0
[root@localhost ~]# cat /root/ifcfg-bond0.10
DEVICE=bond0.10
BOOTPROTO=none
ONBOOT=yes
USERCTL=no
REORDER_HDR=no
IPADDR=212.xx.xx.248
NETMASK=255.255.255.224
GATEWAY=212.xx.xx.225
[root@localhost ~]# cat /etc/sysconfig/static-routes
net 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 gw 212.xx.xx.228
That looks about how I do it on some of our servers, except for the
second bonded interface. Why make a second bonded interface? Which is
what I see you doing with bond0.10? With our bonded interfaces we setup
everything in bond0 (and bond1, etc). Only if I have need another
virtual interface do I setup one like bond0.10.
