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. -- Ceterum censeo, Carthago delenda est.

Hi Mark, Yeah I was wondering that too :-) Actually the setup is what I saw on a server that one of the previous guys setup. But due to my lack of experience in this matter I am wondering why it was set up like this. What would could be the reason for this kind of setup ? Best regards Lars Sorensen
