Add an extra route

ip route add 10.10.0.0/24 via 10.10.0.1

When you try to change the default route. Its best to use replace instead of add. Otherwise you will have two default routes. The first will be used.

ip route replace default via 192.168.0.1

Bonding interfaces

Check the current bonding status with. Specificly the Bonding Mode might be quite interesting to inspect

cat /proc/net/bonding/bond0

using nmcli

Create a bond interface and set its mode

nmcli connection add type bond ifname bond0 con-name bond0 bond.options "mode=802.3ad"

Create a bond interface and set ip settings

nmcli connection add type bond ifname bond0 con-name bond0 bond.options "mode=802.3ad" ipv4.method manual ipv4.addresses 133.33.33.62/22 ipv4.gateway 133.33.31.1 ipv6.method manual ipv6.addresses 2004:210:208:303b::1:162/64 ipv6.gateway 2004:210:208:303b::1

see for more info

Add interface to bond0

nmcli connection add type ethernet ifname eth0 master bond0

bring bond interface down and up

nmcli connection down bond0 && nmcli connection up bond0

Remove a interface from the bond: First list the connections

[root@server1 ~]# nmcli c

Wired connection 1      68f1a2df-b5cf-3375-b9c9-bf5f29dd76c6  ethernet  --

then remove the bond interface. (remove the bond links)

nmcli connection delete bond-slave-eno12409np1

ethtool

set network link speed

ethtool -s <interface> speed 25000
