Re: [Xen-users] Xen Bonding Network Connections

[Maarten Vanraes <maarten@xxxxx>]

I've successfully done this.

it's fairly easy:
 * in gentoo make net.bond0 and net.bond1 and in xen use bond0 instead of 
eth0, call the bridge also bond0.

diff for bonding to work:

renaming the interface did not work, so i deleted and recreated it; that also 
didn't work, because my dom0 has no ip address on the bond, so this is the 
fix:
