Configure network bonding on RHEL (Red Hat Enterprise Linux)
Question:
Recently I have to use the RHEL and need to config the network with a few NICs. Here comes the question: What's the network bonding and How to bond? So I write this post.
What's network bonding?
Network bonding is a method of combining (joining) two or more network interfaces together into a single interface. It will increase the network throughput, bandwidth and will give redundancy. If one interface is down or unplugged, the other one will keep the network traffic up and alive. Network bonding can be used in situations wherever you need redundancy, fault tolerance or load balancing networks.
Linux allows us to bond multiple network interfaces into single interface using a special kernel module named bonding. The Linux bonding driver provides a method for combining multiple network interfaces into a single logical “bonded” interface. The behaviour of the bonded interfaces depends upon the mode; generally speaking, modes provide either hot standby or load balancing services. Additionally, link integrity monitoring, may be performed.
Types of network Bonding
According the to the official documentation, here is the types of network bonding modes.
mode=0 (balance-rr)
Round-robin policy: It the default mode. It transmits packets in sequential order from the first available slave through the last. This mode provides load balancing and fault tolerance.
mode=1 (active-backup)
Active-backup policy: In this mode, only one slave in the bond is active. The other one will become active, only when the active slave fails. The bond’s MAC address is externally visible on only one port (network adapter) to avoid confusing the switch. This mode provides fault tolerance.
mode=2 (balance-xor)
XOR policy: Transmit based on [(source MAC address XOR’d with destination MAC address) modulo slave count]. This selects the same slave for each destination MAC address. This mode provides load balancing and fault tolerance.
mode=3 (broadcast)
Broadcast policy: transmits everything on all slave interfaces. This mode provides fault tolerance.
mode=4 (802.3ad)
IEEE 802.3ad Dynamic link aggregation. Creates aggregation groups that share the same speed and duplex settings. Utilizes all slaves in the active aggregator according to the 802.3ad specification.
Prerequisites:
– Ethtool support in the base drivers for retrieving the speed and duplex of each slave.
– A switch that supports IEEE 802.3ad Dynamic link aggregation. Most switches will require some type of configuration to enable 802.3ad mode.
mode=5 (balance-tlb)
Adaptive transmit load balancing: channel bonding that does not require any special switch support. The outgoing traffic is distributed according to the current load (computed relative to the speed) on each slave. Incoming traffic is received by the current slave. If the receiving slave fails, another slave takes over the MAC address of the failed receiving slave.
Prerequisite:
– Ethtool support in the base drivers for retrieving the speed of each slave.
mode=6 (balance-alb)
Adaptive load balancing: includes balance-tlb plus receive load balancing (rlb) for IPV4 traffic, and does not require any special switch support. The receive load balancing is achieved by ARP negotiation. The bonding driver intercepts the ARP Replies sent by the local system on their way out and overwrites the source hardware address with the unique hardware address of one of the slaves in the bond such that different peers use different hardware addresses for the server.
Setting up network Bonding on RHEL
Config the network bonding (mode 1 )
shutdown the nm (if you don't shoudown the nm, you can use nmcli con reload to make the nm reload the config file)
systemctl stop NetworkManager.service
systemctl disable NetworkManager.service
check the mod
modprobe --first-time bonding
lsmod | grep bonding
create the bond0 interface file
vim /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-bond0
TYPE=Bond
BOOTPROTO=dhcp
NAME=bond0
DEVICE=bond0
ONBOOT=yes
BONDING_MASTER=yes
BONDING_OPTS="mode=1 miimon=100"
#IPADDR=10.73.73.21
#PREFIX=
fix the two files - ifcfg-eno1 ; ifcfg-eno2
[root@hp-dl320eg8- network-scripts]# cat ifcfg-eno1
TYPE=Ethernet
PROXY_METHOD=none
BROWSER_ONLY=no
BOOTPROTO=none
DEFROUTE=yes
IPV4_FAILURE_FATAL=no
IPV6INIT=yes
IPV6_AUTOCONF=yes
IPV6_DEFROUTE=yes
IPV6_FAILURE_FATAL=no
IPV6_ADDR_GEN_MODE=stable-privacy
NAME=eno1
UUID=fa3a6d8b---a6e4-c93cf3480ac1
DEVICE=eno1
ONBOOT=yes
MASTER=bond0
SLAVE=yes
[root@hp-dl320eg8- network-scripts]# cat ifcfg-eno2
TYPE=Ethernet
PROXY_METHOD=none
BROWSER_ONLY=no
BOOTPROTO=none
DEFROUTE=yes
IPV4_FAILURE_FATAL=no
IPV6INIT=yes
IPV6_AUTOCONF=yes
IPV6_DEFROUTE=yes
IPV6_FAILURE_FATAL=no
IPV6_ADDR_GEN_MODE=stable-privacy
NAME=xuyaowen
UUID=3624711a-f96d-40cb-9b06-0f10031c0895
DEVICE=eno2
ONBOOT=yes
MASTER=bond0
SLAVE=yes
restart the network
systemctl restart network
check the bond0 status
cat /proc/net/bonding/bond0
[root@hp-dl320eg8- network-scripts]# cat /proc/net/bonding/bond0
Ethernet Channel Bonding Driver: v3.7.1 (April , ) Bonding Mode: fault-tolerance (active-backup)
Primary Slave: None
Currently Active Slave: eno1
MII Status: up
MII Polling Interval (ms):
Up Delay (ms):
Down Delay (ms): Slave Interface: eno1
MII Status: up
Speed: Mbps
Duplex: full
Link Failure Count:
Permanent HW addr: :::0d:fb:
Slave queue ID: Slave Interface: eno2
MII Status: up
Speed: Mbps
Duplex: full
Link Failure Count:
Permanent HW addr: :::0d:fb:
Slave queue ID:
As you see in the above output, the bond0 interface is up and running and it is configured as active-backup(mode1) mode. In this mode, only one slave in the bond is active. The other one will become active, only when the active slave fails.
finished!
some command about net:
ifup ifcfg-bond0
ifdown ifcfg-bond0
to make the interface up/down
if the nm(network manager) is up:
use nmcli con reload to let the nm to know the changes.
ip addr show to show the addr
