Ethernet Bonding enables two Ethernet ports to be used as bonding pair. This ensures for a reliability of service. If the active port becomes unusable the other port in the bonding pair is used to transport traffic.

To configure Ethernet Bonding:

1\. Select **Hosts** from the navigation panel.<br>

2. Select a Host from the Hosts Configuration list.<br>
3. Click the Status tab.\
   \*Select **Change Network Devices Role**.<br>
4. Select **Reset Host Role**.<br>
5. A Role Configuration window is displayed.\
   \*Set LAN/WAN role to the 2 Ethernet interfaces you want to bond.

* Click add bonding
  * The bonding pair is displayed below.
* Give a name to the bond.
* For each LAN/WAN select the associated interface for the bond
* Click continue

To verify the Ethernet Bond:

1. Select **IP Interfaces** from the navigation panel.<br>

2.The bond0 ports are shown.

* Click the **Status** tab.

3. Click the **Ethernet Bondings** Tab.

* Select a Host to view more details.
* An Ethernet bonding status window is displayed

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://tmediadocs.telcobridges.com/configuration/web-portal-3-3/hardware/ip-network/configure-tmg7800-ethernet-bonding.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
