From eb64b435ebb2a7cb1274d5f8d8c323905caf29bc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Susant Sahani Date: Wed, 21 Dec 2016 23:40:36 +0530 Subject: networkd: bond support primary slave and active slave (#4873) active_slave: Specifies the new active slave for modes that support it (active-backup, balance-alb and balance-tlb). primary slave: systemd-networks currently lacks the capability to set the primary slave in an active-backup bonding. This is necessary if you prefer one interface over the other. A common example is a eth0-wlan0 bonding on a laptop where you'd want to switch to the wired connection whenever it's available.
