      em1 is the builtin NIC , p255p1 is the one I added.

      Ive tested it for some days now , with more than one client , so can u tell me what should i remove/add to my config ?
      From the last reboot the server was at first connected through buildin NIC then after a few hours ive connected the second NIC

        Well, I think this line is in error
        bond-primary em1 p255p1
        Since you already have that defined for em1 or I would only select one, probably the internal one for primary.

        Secondly I think I would use bond mode 5 or if you have access to the switch setup LACP mode.

        Did you deploy only one client in the test above or more than one? The packets transmitted seem to indicate the second nic is not being used. If you had only two actors in the conversation I would understand the packet mismatch.

        Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG!

          And why bond-primary em1 eth1?? You don’t have eth1 as ifconfig shows.

          Web GUI issue? Please check apache error (debian/ubuntu: /var/log/apache2/error.log, centos/fedora/rhel: /var/log/httpd/error_log) and php-fpm log (/var/log/php*-fpm.log)

                I’d suggest this config:

                auto em1
                iface em1 inet manual
                  bond-master bond0
                  bond-primary em1
                
                auto p255p1
                iface p255p1 inet manual
                  bond-master bond0
                
                auto bond0
                iface bond0 inet static
                  bond-slaves em1 p255p1
                  bond-mode 2
                  bond-miimon 100
                  ...
                

                Web GUI issue? Please check apache error (debian/ubuntu: /var/log/apache2/error.log, centos/fedora/rhel: /var/log/httpd/error_log) and php-fpm log (/var/log/php*-fpm.log)

                  @Sebastian-Roth In some of the ubuntu examples they always use bond-slaves none. Not sure why. I would agree with your setting.

                  As for the primary, I still think I would use the onboard nic for primary, but again I don’t know what a p255p network interface is. Also if the xor mode (bond mode 2) (not really intelligent but fast) isn’t properly sharing the bandwidth during 3 or more installs at the same time, I would switch to bond-mode 5 or setup lacp on the switch and use bond-mode 4.

                    The p255p is the second NIC I added to the server.

                    em1 - built in
                    p255p - 1gigabit ethernet card

                    auto em1
                    iface em1 inet manual
                      bond-master bond0
                      bond-primary em1
                    
                    auto p255p1
                    iface p255p1 inet manual
                      bond-master bond0
                    
                    auto bond0
                    iface bond0 inet static
                      bond-slaves em1 p255p1
                      bond-mode 2
                      bond-miimon 100
                      ... -> is there missing something or thats all ?

                      I used round robin, it gave both speed and resilience, however that was on an unmanaged switch.

                        @mitzayapa Sorry I was reading fast before I started my commute into work. I read p255p1 as your primary interface. I thought it was strange, but I’ve seen some pretty strange stuff in the last few days.

                        As for the bonding, what you have is correct, you still need to assign the normal IP address stuff to the bond0 interface.

                        At the very least these:

                        address 192.168.137.51
                        netmask 255.255.255.0
                        gateway 192.168.137.1

                            @mitzayapa I agree that looks reasonable. Restart the network service and see what you have with ip addr show

                            I do have to say I’ve only seen where they bond like adapters. This should work but now you have two network drivers loaded. Again not a problem, just not standard.

                                Without configuring the p255p1 and em1 the network ainºt working.(as i have no connection to server)

                                It works like this :
