network --add_member Description Add an interface to an existing bond. Syntax network --add_member --bondif --nwif --bondif Bond interface to add to. --nwif Eth interfaces to add. For example, to add eth2 to bond1, run the command: network --add_member --bondif bond1 --nwif eth2 Result Interface add successful. Please restart networking for the changes to take effect. network --setdns [--suffix ] [--primary ] [--secondary ] Description Configures the domain name system (DNS) for a DR Series system, which includes the corresponding DNS suffix and a primary name server IP address (and optionally, a secondary name server IP address). Syntax network --setdns --suffix storage.local --primary 10.25.20.21 --secondary 10.25.20.25 network --setbonding --bondif [--mode ] [--mtu ] Description Configures or updates the bonding mode or sets the maximum transmission unit (MTU) number to use for a DR Series system. Syntax network --bondif bond1 --setbonding --mode ALB --mtu 1750 Result Bond device operation successful. Please run 'network --restart' for the changes to take effect. NOTE: ALB load balancing does not balance the load properly when the backup servers are on a remote subnet. This is because ALB uses the address resolution protocol (ARP) and ARP updates are subnet-specific. Because of this, ARP broadcasts and updates are not sent across the router. Instead, all traffic is sent to the first interface in the bond. To resolve this ARP-specific issue, make sure that the data source systems reside on the same subnet as the DR Series system. 41

network --add_member
Description
Add an interface to an existing bond.
Syntax
network --add_member --bondif <bondN>
--nwif <eth0, eth1, . . . ,ethN>
--bondif
Bond interface to add to.
--nwif
Eth interfaces to add.
For example, to add eth2 to bond1, run the command:
network --add_member --bondif bond1 --nwif
eth2
Result
Interface add successful. Please restart networking for the changes to take
effect.
network --setdns [--suffix <dns suffix>] [--primary <IPv4/IPv6 address>] [--secondary
<IPv4/IPv6 address>]
Description
Configures the domain name system (DNS) for a DR Series system, which includes the corresponding DNS suffix and a
primary name server IP address (and optionally, a secondary name server IP address).
Syntax
network --setdns --suffix storage.local --primary 10.25.20.21 --secondary
10.25.20.25
network --setbonding --bondif <bondN> [--mode <ALB | 802.3ad>] [--mtu <supported MTU
range 512 - 9000>]
Description
Configures or updates the bonding mode or sets the maximum transmission unit (MTU) number to use for a DR Series
system.
Syntax
network --bondif bond1 --setbonding --mode ALB --mtu 1750
Result
Bond device operation successful. Please run 'network --restart' for the
changes to take effect.
NOTE:
ALB load balancing does not balance the load properly when the backup servers are on a remote subnet.
This is because ALB uses the address resolution protocol (ARP) and ARP updates are subnet-specific. Because of
this, ARP broadcasts and updates are not sent across the router. Instead, all traffic is sent to the first interface in
the bond. To resolve this ARP-specific issue, make sure that the data source systems reside on the same subnet
