Bond testing
Let's connect to W1 container (10.0.0.1) and try to ping W2 (10.0.0.2).
It works !
Let's shut down p12b interface of bond B1.
- a select p12b
-
b Press
to shutdown interface - c Status LEDs become RED and message displays "LINK DOWN" ( d )
We notice that pinging from W1 to W2 still works.
It is interesting to refresh plotnetcfg display:
As you can see, it shows that p21b link is down by changing background color of p12b and p21b.
With p12b still being down, we are going to also shut down p12a interface.
Let's shut down p12a by selecting it and pushing
Now both p12a and p12a are shut down.
ping from W1 to W2 doesn't work any more.
Let's reenable p12b interface
- a select p12b
-
b press
to reenable
Now ping works.
We demonstrated that through bonding, traffic can go either through veth pair p12a-p21a or veth pair p12b-p21b.
