>> Why on earth would you do that when configuring the LAgg does this for you...! ALSO! you do not need an address on either of the nics!. That should be placed explicitly on the LAgg and add a alias for each sub address you would like.<< Incorrect! Try adding failover on 2 NIC's, leaving it up to lagg. You will see that lagg device gets MACaddr of NIC2 - and this,for diskless clients will not work because BOTH lagg and NIC2 need to be assigned MACaddr of NIC1. Without NIC1 MACaddr, the client will loose the credentials on server which it had established at boot-up. Suggest you read man lagg, example #2 (failover interface between wired and wireless) ++++++++++++++++ On Fri, Mar 30, 2012 at 8:43 AM, Jason Hellenthal <jhellenthal@dataix.net>wrote: > > > On Thu, Mar 29, 2012 at 04:42:38AM +0300, Beeblebrox wrote: > > Hi Adrian, > > > > Re your comments; you are 100% right, as I have not done steps 1 & 4 from > > your list below. > > I must also admit that my knowledge of networking, on a scale of 0-10, is > > probably -1. > > > > <what does ifconfig look like?> > > I assume you mean for Client?
