I don't thinks that specific to bonded interfaces, a plain eth0 would work the same way. > We could potentially address this in a backwards-compatible way by adding a > "secondary" field to a interface entry that is an array of the remaining > secondary addresses.

And perhaps add a primary: "..." to secondaries too. So the structured fact will look like : networking => { .... interfaces => { eth0 => { secondaries => [ "eth0:1" ] }, eth0:1 => { primary => "eth0" }, }, } So it would be easy to filter interfaces in template or other places -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
