Scripting question: I'm trying to bond network ports together on our mac mini servers. I can do it very successfully in the GUI but every attempt i've made at scripting this, creates the bond but fails to add the interfaces to it. Has anyone managed this through terminal?
+13What have you tried? Maybe something like this would work?
sudo ifconfig bridge0 create
sudo ifconfig bridge0 addm en0 addm en1
sudo ifconfig bridge0 up
+23I got as far as the following:
eth=$( networksetup -listallhardwareports | grep -A 1 "Hardware Port: Ethernet" | grep "Device: " | cut -c 9- )
teth=$( networksetup -listallhardwareports | grep -A 1 "Hardware Port: Thunderbolt Ethernet" | grep "Device: " | cut -c 9- )
networksetup -createBond bond0 $eth $tethThis creates the bond but doesn't attach the network ports to that bond. On 10.9.2 server at least.
