Hi!
There is a real need to automatically instantiate a bond/team and
enslave a VF and virtio device to solve live migrations issues [2].
This has been tackled in multiple ways, but I believe this would be
a great feature to have in NetworkManager. The recent proposal was
to simply detect that bond should be created based on MAC addresses
of the virtio and VF devices being identical [1].
Is this a feature worth considering? Any thoughts, comments?
