Interface & IP (IPv4 and IPv6) settings

Here you can configure IPv4 or IPv6 settings on all available network adapters as well as add up to 10 static routes.

If an interface and protocol should not be used, enter “disabled” and if automatic configuration (RA for IPv6 and DHCP or IPv4) is required, enter “auto”.

Network bonding can be used to set up a fault-tolerant or/and load-balanced interface for StoredSafe.

StoredSafe supports the following bonding policies:

balance-rr
Round-robin policy: Transmit packets in sequential order from the first available slave through the last. This mode provides load balancing and fault tolerance.
active-backup
Active-backup policy: Only one slave in the bond is active. A different slave becomes active if, and only if, the active slave fails. This mode provides fault tolerance.
balance-xor
XOR policy: Transmit based on the selected transmit hash policy. The default policy is a simple [(source MAC address XOR’d with destination MAC address XOR packet type ID) modulo slave count]. This mode provides load balancing and fault tolerance.
broadcast
Broadcast policy: transmits everything on all slave interfaces. This mode provides fault tolerance.
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. This mode provides load balancing and fault tolerance.
balance-tlb
Adaptive transmit load balancing: channel bonding that does not require any special switch support.
balance-alb
Adaptive load balancing: includes balance-tlb plus receive load balancing (rlb) for IPV4 traffic, and does not require any special switch support.

For more detailed information see the Linux Ethernet Bonding Driver HOWTO on kernel.org

Interface Settings

Configure bonding (e.g. 802.3ad/LACP, Balance-RR etc) (Q to quit)? <No>: Yes

There are 4 possible interfaces that could be used to set up a bond:

0) eth0
1) eth1
2) enp0s9
3) enp0s10

Enter interface id (0-3) to include in bond (. to end input, Q to Quit)?: 1
INFO: Selected "eth1" to be included in bond0.
Enter interface id (0-3) to include in bond (. to end input, Q to Quit)?: 2
INFO: Selected "enp0s9" to be included in bond0.
Enter interface id (0-3) to include in bond (. to end input, Q to Quit)?: 3
INFO: Selected "enp0s10" to be included in bond0.
Enter interface id (0-3) to include in bond (. to end input, Q to Quit)?: .
INFO: bond0 will be created using eth1, enp0s9, enp0s10

Supported bonding policies:

0) balance-rr
1) active-backup
2) balance-xor
3) broadcast
4) 802.3ad
5) balance-tlb
6) balance-alb

What bonding policy should be used (. to end input, Q to Quit)? <4>: 4
Set "bond-lacp-rate" (slow or fast, . to end input, Q to Quit)? <fast>:
Set "bond-miimon" (. to end input, Q to Quit)? <100>:
Set "bond-downdelay" (. to end input, Q to Quit)? <100>:
Set "bond-updelay" (. to end input, Q to Quit)? <100>:
