Description
This test case cover bonding two or more ethernet interfaces together.
Setup
- Have LAN connection available, preferably with IPv4/IPv6 dualstack support.
- Have two or more ethernet interfaces.
How to test
- Connect all ethernet interfaces to same LAN.
- In "nm-connection-editor" add new "Bond" connection and configure it by adding two or more existing interfaces.
- Select bonding mode "Active backup". Run
ping ip.address.of.gateway
and if you have IPv6 connection also:ping6 ip:address::of:gateway
. Then physically disconnect and re-connect various interfaces in random (keep at least one connected). - Round-robin
Expected Results
Optional
- Go through Ethernet test case for each bonding mode.
- Test other bonding modes like: XOR, Broadcast, 802.3ad, Adaptive transmit load balancing, Adaptive load balancing
