Bond testing

8.4 Bond testing

8.4.1 ping from W1

Let's connect to W1 container (10.0.0.1) and try to ping W2 (10.0.0.2). It works.

8.4.2 Shutting down p12b interface

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: ![bondping](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nbonnand/ovs-toolbox/master/src/wiki/bonddisableplotnetcfg.jpg As you can see, it shows that p21b link is down by changing background color of p12b and p21b.
