Subject: [dpdk-dev] Do we support fail_over_mac=1 (active) as dpdk bonding option
Date: Tue, 12 Nov 2019 15:36:36 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CACZZ+Y4R_iOAfY0Ba=8=axJdi1e+9umJ-wp8Gp44KOBe+aXucg@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hello Dpdk Champions,

We have a scenario where we need to support bonding via the dpdk like the
way linux bonding options "fail_over_mac=1".

What is the fail_over_mac Bonding Option?
In active backup bonding mode, the mac address of the bond interface is
typically set to that of the first active slave interface.

*active or 1:*

The "active" *fail_over_mac policy* indicates that the MAC address of the
bond should always be the MAC address of the currently active slave. The
MAC address of the slaves is not changed; instead, the MAC address of the
bond changes during a failover.

Appreciate your response .

Thanks,
Chetan Bhasin
