Preparation:
The IPMI connection to the very system to configure network bonding function must be established first.
Step:
Bonding function check (with WebUI):
Bonding function could be checked with IPMI WebUI. If bonding is enabled, go “Settings > Network Settings > Network IP Settings”, you shall find the bond shown in LAN Interface.
However, if the bond is disabled, you shall find the LAN inputs shown individually in LAN Interface.
Bonding Function Check (in BIOS):
To check if the bonding function is working and configured successfully, we may check it out in BIOS menu > Server Mgmt > BMC Network Configuration.
If bonding function is enabled, you shall find one and only one LAN signal detected with “(Failover)” written after the Lan channel.
On the other hand, if the bonding function is disabled, you shall find Lan channels detected individually and listed below.
Done!
