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

  1. Connect all ethernet interfaces to same LAN.
  2. In "nm-connection-editor" add new "Bond" connection and configure it by adding two or more existing interfaces.
  3. 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).
  4. 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
