Open haup opened 5 months ago

haup commented 5 months ago

Description

As a user, i want to be able to utilize the second interface to as part of bond interface for redundancy purposes.

(I couldnt find any regarding open issue, although i was mentioned on one of the announcements in discord for BMC improvments. )

Describe the solution you'd like Prefably configurable on the BMC webUI

This will require configuration of the Realtek Switch, which is mentioned in Issue #46. I would be curious on the progress of this effort aswell.

svenrademakers commented 5 months ago

it's still on our to-do list. However, we temporarily parked this issue. We are running a somewhat older kernel, which requires a lot of backporting to get the driver in there. Instead, we decided to first upgrade to mainline Linux. Once that's done, we will configure the realtek switch

haup commented 5 months ago

that sounds very reasonable! Is there any roadmap when the new kernel will be included? more like a question of weeks or months?

svenrademakers commented 5 months ago

i think around a month is realistic
