Hello Dpdk Champions,
We have a scenario where we need to support bonding via the dpdk like the
way linux bonding options "fail_over_mac=1".
What is the fail_over_mac Bonding Option?
In active backup bonding mode, the mac address of the bond interface is
typically set to that of the first active slave interface.
*active or 1:*
The "active" *fail_over_mac policy* indicates that the MAC address of the
bond should always be the MAC address of the currently active slave. The
MAC address of the slaves is not changed; instead, the MAC address of the
bond changes during a failover.
Appreciate your response .
Thanks,
Chetan Bhasin
