Hi I am trying to bond an ethernet and wifi interface for seamless wired/wifi switching where ethernet is the primary connection, but fallback to wifi happens when the plug is pulled but with no IP addressing changes. I'm using NM 1.10.6. I guess the first question is does anyone know of a howto on the steps needing doing just so that I can sanity check what I am doing? I am using Fedora 28 so am happy with either /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ configuration or all done completely with nmcli. I just want to have it working one way or the other first before trying to make it work native to Fedora 28. What I seem to have now is a bond0 interface including my ethernet interface and it comes up: # nmcli connection NAME UUID TYPE DEVICE bond-slave-enp0s25-1 30caaf72-9fb8-4876-be5b-e97eab16e4c2 ethernet enp0s25 bond0 865fab22-975a-406d-a00a-33a313cbe7fb bond bond0 bond-slave-wlp3s0-1 cafdd3e1-1490-470c-8103-990c5c5c13ba ethernet -- It doesn't seem to be bringing the wifi interface into bond0 though.
Hi,
bond-slave-wlp3s0-1 is of type 'ethernet', while it should be
'wifi'. You can create the wifi connection using your favorite
graphical tool or nmcli and then change its master to the bond in this
way:
nmcli connection modify $wifi-slave-con \
connection.master bond0 \
connection.slave-type bond
After this, it will be added to the bond when it connects, which
should happen automatically if you also set:
connection.autoconnect yes
