Thanks @FirbyKirby, that did the trick for me too.

[Issue with priority of interfaces in bonding]

Bump, anybody has an idea ?

[Issue with priority of interfaces in bonding]

Hello, I have the following interfaces: 10G NIC (set up as eth0) and a 1G NIC (set up as eth1) bonded together in active-backup. The bond works fine but it always defaults to eth1 for some reason, every time I reboot the server it switches back to eth1.

 

I'm viewing the active slave using /sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/active_slave and changing it using

 

echo eth0 > /sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/active_slave

 

but I would really like the bond to always use eth0 when it's up. Any way to force it ?

 

Thanks in advance for the help.
