Linux KVM bonding and bridging?
Good afternoon,
I would like to ask for help in setting up a bridge over bonding bundle to work with KVM. The idea is the following, there are two network interfaces eth0 and eth1 on the machine that is used as a host for virtual machines. Network interfaces are connected to the same local network, I would like to set up bonding to balance the load between them.
I set up bonding, made a bridge over it, specified the bridge as an interface in virtual machines. Result: there is a network in the host system, it even balances and everything seems to be fine ... But there is no network in the virtual machines.
So configs:
~$ cat /etc/network/interfaces
# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
# The primary network interface working in bonding
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet manual
bond-master bond0
auto eth1
iface eth1 inet manual
bond-master bond0
# Configure bonding
auto bond0
iface bond0 inet manual
bond-mode balance-xor #
bond-slaves none
bond-miimon 100
# bond-slaves eth0 eth1
# Interface for virtual machines
auto vbr0
iface vbr0 inet dhcp
# vlan-raw-device bond0
bridge_ports bond0
bridge_fd 9
bridge_hello 2
bridge_maxage 12
bridge_stp on
~$ brctl show
bridge name bridge id STP enabled interfaces
