I want to have a server with two Ethernet links in a redundant configuration, 
and to bridge it as the primary interface.  So far the below is the only 
configuration in /etc/network/interfaces that I can get to work.

It would be cleaner and clearer if I could have a separate bond0 device 
specified in the interfaces file, but according to my experiments so far this 
seems impossible.

Any advice?

auto xenbr0
iface xenbr0 inet static
  pre-up brctl addbr xenbr0
  post-down brctl delbr xenbr0
  address 10.0.0.123
  netmask 255.255.255.0
  gateway 10.0.0.1
  up modprobe bond0
  up ifconfig bond0 hw ether 00:02:55:E1:36:32
  up ifconfig bond0 up
  up ifenslave bond0 eth0 eth1
  up brctl addif xenbr0 bond0
  up brctl stp xenbr0 on
  post-down ifconfig bond0 down
  post-down ifenslave -d bond0 eth0 eth1
