Subject: [PATCH 2/6] network: Add support for bonds
Date: Tue, 29 Jul 2025 14:42:16 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250729144220.1332214-2-michael.tremer@ipfire.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250729144220.1332214-1-michael.tremer@ipfire.org>
This is a bare-minimum implementation to realise this. It changes the
bridge script because the two of them have quite a bit in common, so we
should avoid further code duplication.
