One of the bonding commits says: bonding: detect virtual bonding devices and create an ethernet device
A bonding device is like a virtual ethernet device. We therefore reuse nm-device-ethernet and add some special handling to detect bonding connections. Exactly how much "like a virtual ethernet device" is a bond? In particular, when you bond two infiniband devices together (or an ethernet device and a wifi device, which is supported by the kernel according to the internet), is the result still "like a virtual ethernet device" in the same way? Is it more like an NMDeviceWired than an NMDeviceEthernet? (Which may depend to some extent on questions like "would anyone ever run 802.1x over a bond?") -- Dan _______________________________________________ networkmanager-list mailing list networkmanager-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list
