RE: NIC bonding + IP alias?

[Brian Long <brilong cisco com>]

Brian,

Thank you.  Is the probeall line required?  I read about it in
bonding.txt, but I haven't seen the need to insert it.

My problem was that I had bond0 defined and I tried defining bond0:1 not
realizing bond0:0 should have been my first alias.

Thanks again.
