systemd.netdev — Virtual Network Device configuration
netdev.netdev
A plain ini-style text file that encodes configuration about a virtual network device, used by systemd-networkd(8). See systemd.syntax(7) for a general description of the syntax.
The main Virtual Network Device file must have the extension .netdev;
other extensions are ignored. Virtual network devices are created as soon as networkd is
started. If a netdev with the specified name already exists, networkd will use that as-is rather
than create its own. Note that the settings of the pre-existing netdev will not be changed by
networkd.
The .netdev files are read from the files located in the system network
directory /usr/lib/systemd/network and
/usr/local/lib/systemd/network, the volatile runtime network directory
/run/systemd/network and the local administration network directory
/etc/systemd/network. All configuration files are collectively sorted and
processed in alphanumeric order, regardless of the directories in which they live. However, files
with identical filenames replace each other. It is recommended that each filename is prefixed with
a number (e.g. 10-vlan.netdev). Otherwise, .netdev files
generated by
systemd-network-generator.service(8)
may take precedence over user configured files. Files in /etc/ have the
highest priority, files in /run/ take precedence over files with the same name
in /usr/lib/. This can be used to override a system-supplied configuration
file with a local file if needed. As a special case, an empty file (file size 0) or symlink with
the same name pointing to /dev/null disables the configuration file entirely
(it is "masked").
Along with the netdev file foo.netdev, a "drop-in" directory
foo.netdev.d/ may exist. All files with the suffix ".conf"
from this directory will be merged in the alphanumeric order and parsed after the main file itself
has been parsed. This is useful to alter or add configuration settings, without having to modify
the main configuration file. Each drop-in file must have appropriate section headers.
In addition to /etc/systemd/network, drop-in ".d"
directories can be placed in /usr/lib/systemd/network or
/run/systemd/network directories. Drop-in files in
/etc/ take precedence over those in /run/ which in turn
take precedence over those in /usr/lib/. Drop-in files under any of these
directories take precedence over the main netdev file wherever located. (Of course, since
/run/ is temporary and /usr/lib/ is for vendors, it is
unlikely drop-ins should be used in either of those places.)
The following kinds of virtual network devices may be
configured in .netdev files:
Table 1. Supported kinds of virtual network devices
| Kind | Description |
|---|---|
bond | A bond device is an aggregation of all its slave devices. See Linux Ethernet Bonding Driver HOWTO for details. |
bridge | A bridge device is a software switch, and each of its slave devices and the bridge itself are ports of the switch. |
dummy | A dummy device drops all packets sent to it. |
gre | A Level 3 GRE tunnel over IPv4. See RFC 2784 for details. Name "gre0" should not be used, as the kernel creates a device with this name when the corresponding kernel module is loaded. |
gretap | A Level 2 GRE tunnel over IPv4. Name "gretap0" should not be used, as the kernel creates a device with this name when the corresponding kernel module is loaded. |
erspan | ERSPAN mirrors traffic on one or more source ports and delivers the mirrored traffic to one or more destination ports on another switch. The traffic is encapsulated in generic routing encapsulation (GRE) and is therefore routable across a layer 3 network between the source switch and the destination switch. Name "erspan0" should not be used, as the kernel creates a device with this name when the corresponding kernel module is loaded. |
ip6gre | A Level 3 GRE tunnel over IPv6. |
ip6tnl | An IPv4 or IPv6 tunnel over IPv6 |
ip6gretap | A Level 2 GRE tunnel over IPv6. |
ipip | An IPv4 over IPv4 tunnel. |
ipvlan | An IPVLAN device is a stacked device which receives packets from its underlying device based on IP address filtering. |
ipvtap | An IPVTAP device is a stacked device which receives packets from its underlying device based on IP address filtering and can be accessed using the tap user space interface. |
macvlan | A macvlan device is a stacked device which receives packets from its underlying device based on MAC address filtering. |
macvtap | A macvtap device is a stacked device which receives packets from its underlying device based on MAC address filtering. |
sit | An IPv6 over IPv4 tunnel. |
tap | A persistent Level 2 tunnel between a network device and a device node. |
tun | A persistent Level 3 tunnel between a network device and a device node. |
veth | An Ethernet tunnel between a pair of network devices. |
vlan | A VLAN is a stacked device which receives packets from its underlying device based on VLAN tagging. See IEEE 802.1Q for details. |

geneve | A GEneric NEtwork Virtualization Encapsulation (GENEVE) netdev driver. |
l2tp | A Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TP) is a tunneling protocol used to support virtual private networks (VPNs) or as part of the delivery of services by ISPs. It does not provide any encryption or confidentiality by itself |
macsec | Media Access Control Security (MACsec) is an 802.1AE IEEE industry-standard security technology that provides secure communication for all traffic on Ethernet links. MACsec provides point-to-point security on Ethernet links between directly connected nodes and is capable of identifying and preventing most security threats. |
vrf | A Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF) interface to create separate routing and forwarding domains. |
vcan | The virtual CAN driver (vcan). Similar to the network loopback devices, vcan offers a virtual local CAN interface. |
vxcan | The virtual CAN tunnel driver (vxcan). Similar to the virtual ethernet driver veth, vxcan implements a local CAN traffic tunnel between two virtual CAN network devices. When creating a vxcan, two vxcan devices are created as pair. When one end receives the packet it appears on its pair and vice versa. The vxcan can be used for cross namespace communication. |
wireguard | WireGuard Secure Network Tunnel. |

A virtual network device is only created if the [Match] section matches the current environment, or if the section is empty. The following keys are accepted:
Host=¶Matches against the hostname or machine ID of the host. See ConditionHost= in
systemd.unit(5)
for details. When prefixed with an exclamation mark ("!"), the result is negated.
If an empty string is assigned, the previously assigned value is cleared.
Virtualization=¶Checks whether the system is executed in a virtualized environment and optionally test
whether it is a specific implementation. See ConditionVirtualization= in
systemd.unit(5)
for details. When prefixed with an exclamation mark ("!"), the result is negated.
If an empty string is assigned, the previously assigned value is cleared.
KernelCommandLine=¶Checks whether a specific kernel command line option is set. See
ConditionKernelCommandLine= in
systemd.unit(5)
for details. When prefixed with an exclamation mark ("!"), the result is negated.
If an empty string is assigned, the previously assigned value is cleared.
KernelVersion=¶Checks whether the kernel version (as reported by uname -r) matches a certain
expression. See ConditionKernelVersion= in
systemd.unit(5) for
details. When prefixed with an exclamation mark ("!"), the result is negated.
If an empty string is assigned, the previously assigned value is cleared.
Credential=¶Checks whether the specified credential was passed to the
systemd-networkd.service service. See System and Service Credentials for details. When
prefixed with an exclamation mark ("!"), the result is negated. If an empty
string is assigned, the previously assigned value is cleared.
Architecture=¶Checks whether the system is running on a specific architecture. See
ConditionArchitecture= in
systemd.unit(5)
for details. When prefixed with an exclamation mark ("!"), the result is negated.
If an empty string is assigned, the previously assigned value is cleared.
Firmware=¶Checks whether the system is running on a machine with the specified firmware. See
ConditionFirmware= in
systemd.unit(5)
for details. When prefixed with an exclamation mark ("!"), the result is negated.
If an empty string is assigned, the previously assigned value is cleared.
The [NetDev] section accepts the following keys:
Description=¶A free-form description of the netdev.
Name=¶The interface name used when creating the netdev. This setting is compulsory.
Kind=¶The netdev kind. This setting is compulsory. See the
"Supported netdev kinds" section for the
valid keys.
MTUBytes=¶The maximum transmission unit in bytes to set for the device. The usual suffixes K, M, G
are supported and are understood to the base of 1024. For "tun" or
"tap" devices, MTUBytes= setting is not currently supported in
[NetDev] section. Please specify it in [Link] section of
corresponding
systemd.network(5)
files.
MACAddress=¶Specifies the MAC address to use for the device, or takes the special value
"none". When "none", systemd-networkd
does not request the MAC address for the device, and the kernel will assign a random MAC
address. For "tun", "tap", or "l2tp"
devices, the MACAddress= setting in the [NetDev] section is not
supported and will be ignored. Please specify it in the [Link] section of the corresponding
systemd.network(5)
file. If this option is not set, "vlan" device inherits the MAC address of
the master interface. For other kind of netdevs, if this option is not set, then the MAC
address is generated based on the interface name and the
machine-id(5).
Note, even if "none" is specified, systemd-udevd
will assign the persistent MAC address for the device, as 99-default.link
has MACAddressPolicy=persistent. So, it is also necessary to create a
custom .link file for the device, if the MAC address assignment is not desired.
The [Bridge] section only applies for
netdevs of kind "bridge", and accepts the
following keys:
HelloTimeSec=¶HelloTimeSec specifies the number of seconds between two hello packets sent out by the root bridge and the designated bridges. Hello packets are used to communicate information about the topology throughout the entire bridged local area network.
MaxAgeSec=¶MaxAgeSec specifies the number of seconds of maximum message age. If the last seen (received) hello packet is more than this number of seconds old, the bridge in question will start the takeover procedure in attempt to become the Root Bridge itself.
ForwardDelaySec=¶ForwardDelaySec specifies the number of seconds spent in each of the Listening and Learning states before the Forwarding state is entered.
AgeingTimeSec=¶This specifies the number of seconds a MAC Address will be kept in the forwarding database after having a packet received from this MAC Address.
Priority=¶The priority of the bridge. An integer between 0 and 65535. A lower value means higher priority. The bridge having the lowest priority will be elected as root bridge.
GroupForwardMask=¶A 16-bit bitmask represented as an integer which allows forwarding of link local frames with 802.1D reserved addresses (01:80:C2:00:00:0X). A logical AND is performed between the specified bitmask and the exponentiation of 2^X, the lower nibble of the last octet of the MAC address. For example, a value of 8 would allow forwarding of frames addressed to 01:80:C2:00:00:03 (802.1X PAE).
DefaultPVID=¶This specifies the default port VLAN ID of a newly attached bridge port.
Set this to an integer in the range 1…4094 or "none" to disable the PVID.
MulticastQuerier=¶Takes a boolean. This setting controls the IFLA_BR_MCAST_QUERIER option in the kernel. If enabled, the kernel will send general ICMP queries from a zero source address. This feature should allow faster convergence on startup, but it causes some multicast-aware switches to misbehave and disrupt forwarding of multicast packets. When unset, the kernel's default will be used.
MulticastSnooping=¶Takes a boolean. This setting controls the IFLA_BR_MCAST_SNOOPING option in the kernel. If enabled, IGMP snooping monitors the Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) traffic between hosts and multicast routers. When unset, the kernel's default will be used.

MVRP=¶Takes a boolean. Multiple VLAN Registration Protocol (MVRP) formerly known as GARP VLAN Registration Protocol (GVRP) is a standards-based Layer 2 network protocol, for automatic configuration of VLAN information on switches. It was defined in the 802.1ak amendment to 802.1Q-2005. When unset, the kernel's default will be used.
LooseBinding=¶Takes a boolean. The VLAN loose binding mode, in which only the operational state is passed from the parent to the associated VLANs, but the VLAN device state is not changed. When unset, the kernel's default will be used.
ReorderHeader=¶Takes a boolean. When enabled, the VLAN reorder header is used and VLAN interfaces behave like physical interfaces. When unset, the kernel's default will be used.
EgressQOSMaps=, IngressQOSMaps=¶Defines a mapping of Linux internal packet priority (SO_PRIORITY)
to VLAN header PCP field for outgoing and incoming frames, respectively. Takes a
whitespace-separated list of integer pairs, where each integer must be in the range
1…4294967294, in the format "from"-"to", e.g.,
"21-7 45-5". Note that "from" must be greater than or equal
to "to". When unset, the kernel's default will be used.
The [MACVLAN] section only applies for
netdevs of kind "macvlan", and accepts the
following key:
Mode=¶The MACVLAN mode to use. The supported options are
"private",
"vepa",
"bridge",

CopyDSCP=¶Takes a boolean. When true, the Differentiated Service Code
Point (DSCP) field will be copied to the inner header from
outer header during the decapsulation of an IPv6 tunnel
packet. DSCP is a field in an IP packet that enables different
levels of service to be assigned to network traffic.
Defaults to "no".
EncapsulationLimit=¶The Tunnel Encapsulation Limit option specifies how many additional
levels of encapsulation are permitted to be prepended to the packet.
For example, a Tunnel Encapsulation Limit option containing a limit
value of zero means that a packet carrying that option may not enter
another tunnel before exiting the current tunnel.
(see RFC 2473).
The valid range is 0…255 and "none". Defaults to 4.
Key=¶The Key= parameter specifies the same key to use in
both directions (InputKey= and OutputKey=).
The Key= is either a number or an IPv4 address-like dotted quad.
It is used as mark-configured SAD/SPD entry as part of the lookup key (both in data

modes
"ip6ip6" for IPv6 over IPv6,
"ipip6" for IPv4 over IPv6 or
"any" for either.
Independent=¶Takes a boolean. When false (the default), the tunnel is always created over some network
device, and a .network file that requests this tunnel using Tunnel= is required
for the tunnel to be created. When true, the tunnel is created independently of any network as
"tunnel@NONE".
AssignToLoopback=¶Takes a boolean. If set to "yes", the loopback interface "lo"
is used as the underlying device of the tunnel interface. Defaults to "no".
AllowLocalRemote=¶Takes a boolean. When true allows tunnel traffic on ip6tnl devices where the remote endpoint is a local host address.
When unset, the kernel's default will be used.
FooOverUDP=¶Takes a boolean. Specifies whether FooOverUDP= tunnel is to be configured.
Defaults to false. This takes effects only for IPIP, SIT, GRE, and GRETAP tunnels.
For more detail information see
Foo over UDP
FOUDestinationPort=¶This setting specifies the UDP destination port for encapsulation.
This field is mandatory when FooOverUDP=yes, and is not set by default.
FOUSourcePort=¶This setting specifies the UDP source port for encapsulation. Defaults to 0
— that is, the source port for packets is left to the network stack to decide.
Encapsulation=¶Accepts the same key as in the [FooOverUDP] section.
IPv6RapidDeploymentPrefix=¶Reconfigure the tunnel for IPv6 Rapid Deployment, also known as 6rd. The value is an ISP-specific IPv6 prefix with a non-zero length. Only applicable to SIT tunnels.
ISATAP=¶Takes a boolean. If set, configures the tunnel as Intra-Site Automatic Tunnel Addressing Protocol (ISATAP) tunnel. Only applicable to SIT tunnels. When unset, the kernel's default will be used.
SerializeTunneledPackets=¶Takes a boolean. If set to yes, then packets are serialized. Only applies for GRE, GRETAP, and ERSPAN tunnels. When unset, the kernel's default will be used.
ERSPANVersion=¶Specifies the ERSPAN version number. Takes 0 for version 0 (a.k.a. type I), 1 for version 1 (a.k.a. type II), or 2 for version 2 (a.k.a. type III). Defaults to 1.
ERSPANIndex=¶Specifies the ERSPAN v1 index field for the interface. Takes an integer in the range
0…1048575, which is associated with the ERSPAN traffic's source port and direction. Only used when
ERSPANVersion=1. Defaults to 0.
ERSPANDirection=¶Specifies the ERSPAN v2 mirrored traffic's direction. Takes "ingress" or
"egress". Only used when ERSPANVersion=2. Defaults to
"ingress".
ERSPANHardwareId=¶Specifies an unique identifier of the ERSPAN v2 engine. Takes an integer in the range 0…63.
Only used when ERSPANVersion=2. Defaults to 0.
The [FooOverUDP] section only applies for
netdevs of kind "fou" and accepts the
following keys:
Encapsulation=¶Specifies the encapsulation mechanism used to store networking packets of various protocols
inside the UDP packets. Supports the following values:
"FooOverUDP" provides the simplest no-frills model of UDP encapsulation, it simply
encapsulates packets directly in the UDP payload. "GenericUDPEncapsulation" is a
generic and extensible encapsulation, it allows encapsulation of packets for any IP protocol and
optional data as part of the encapsulation. For more detailed information see Generic UDP Encapsulation. Defaults to
"FooOverUDP".
Port=¶Specifies the port number where the encapsulated packets will arrive. Those packets will be removed and manually fed back into the network stack with the encapsulation removed to be sent to the real destination. This option is mandatory.
PeerPort=¶Specifies the peer port number. Defaults to unset. Note that when peer port is set
"Peer=" address is mandatory.
Protocol=¶The Protocol= specifies the protocol number of the packets arriving
at the UDP port. When Encapsulation=FooOverUDP, this field is mandatory
and is not set by default. Takes an IP protocol name such as "gre" or
"ipip", or an integer within the range 1…255. When
Encapsulation=GenericUDPEncapsulation, this must not be specified.
Peer=¶Configures peer IP address. Note that when peer address is set "PeerPort="
is mandatory.
Local=¶Configures local IP address.
The [Peer] section only applies for
netdevs of kind "veth" and accepts the
following keys:
The [VXCAN] section only applies for
netdevs of kind "vxcan" and accepts the
following key:
Peer=¶The peer interface name used when creating the netdev. This setting is compulsory.
The [Tun] section only applies for
netdevs of kind "tun", and accepts the following
keys:
MultiQueue=¶Takes a boolean. Configures whether
to use multiple file descriptors (queues) to parallelize
packets sending and receiving. Defaults to
"no".
PacketInfo=¶Takes a boolean. Configures whether
packets should be prepended with four extra bytes (two flag
bytes and two protocol bytes). If disabled, it indicates that
the packets will be pure IP packets. Defaults to
"no".
VNetHeader=¶Takes a boolean. Configures
IFF_VNET_HDR flag for a tun or tap device. It allows sending
and receiving larger Generic Segmentation Offload (GSO)
packets. This may increase throughput significantly.
Defaults to
"no".
User=¶User to grant access to the
/dev/net/tun device.
Group=¶Group to grant access to the
/dev/net/tun device.
KeepCarrier=¶Takes a boolean. If enabled, to make the interface maintain its carrier status, the file
descriptor of the interface is kept open. This may be useful to keep the interface in running
state, for example while the backing process is temporarily shutdown. Defaults to
"no".
The [Tap] section only applies for
netdevs of kind "tap", and accepts the same keys
as the [Tun] section.
The [WireGuard] section accepts the following keys:
PrivateKey=¶The Base64 encoded private key for the interface. It can be
generated using the wg genkey command
(see wg(8)).
This option or PrivateKeyFile= is mandatory to use WireGuard.
Note that because this information is secret, you may want to set
the permissions of the .netdev file to be owned by "root:systemd-network"
with a "0640" file mode.
PrivateKeyFile=¶Takes an absolute path to a file which contains the Base64 encoded private key for the
interface. When this option is specified, then PrivateKey= is ignored. Note
that the file must be readable by the user "systemd-network", so it should be,
e.g., owned by "root:systemd-network" with a "0640" file mode. If
the path refers to an AF_UNIX stream socket in the file system a connection is
made to it and the key read from it.
ListenPort=¶Sets UDP port for listening. Takes either value between 1 and 65535
or "auto". If "auto" is specified,
the port is automatically generated based on interface name.
Defaults to "auto".
FirewallMark=¶Sets a firewall mark on outgoing WireGuard packets from this interface. Takes a number between 1 and 4294967295.
RouteTable=¶The table identifier for the routes to the addresses specified in the
AllowedIPs=. Takes a negative boolean value, one of the predefined names
"default", "main", and "local", names
defined in RouteTable= in
networkd.conf(5),
or a number in the range 1…4294967295. When "off" the routes to the
addresses specified in the AllowedIPs= setting will not be configured.
Defaults to false. This setting will be ignored when the same setting is specified in the
[WireGuardPeer] section.
RouteMetric=¶The priority of the routes to the addresses specified in the
AllowedIPs=. Takes an integer in the range 0…4294967295. Defaults to 0
for IPv4 addresses, and 1024 for IPv6 addresses. This setting will be ignored when the same
setting is specified in the [WireGuardPeer] section.
The [WireGuardPeer] section accepts the following keys:
PublicKey=¶Sets a Base64 encoded public key calculated by wg pubkey (see wg(8)) from a private key, and usually transmitted out of band to the author of the configuration file. This option is mandatory for this section.
Optional preshared key for the interface. It can be generated
by the wg genpsk command. This option adds an
additional layer of symmetric-key cryptography to be mixed into the
already existing public-key cryptography, for post-quantum
resistance.
Note that because this information is secret, you may want to set
the permissions of the .netdev file to be owned by "root:systemd-network"
with a "0640" file mode.
Takes an absolute path to a file which contains the Base64 encoded preshared key for the
peer. When this option is specified, then PresharedKey= is ignored. Note that
the file must be readable by the user "systemd-network", so it should be, e.g.,
owned by "root:systemd-network" with a "0640" file mode. If the
path refers to an AF_UNIX stream socket in the file system a connection is
made to it and the key read from it.
AllowedIPs=¶Sets a comma-separated list of IP (v4 or v6) addresses with CIDR masks from which this peer is allowed to send incoming traffic and to which outgoing traffic for this peer is directed.
The catch-all 0.0.0.0/0 may be specified for matching all IPv4 addresses, and ::/0 may be specified for matching all IPv6 addresses.
Note that this only affects routing inside the network interface itself,
i.e. the packets that pass through the tunnel itself. To cause packets to be sent via the tunnel in
the first place, an appropriate route needs to be added as well — either in the
"[Routes]" section on the ".network" matching the wireguard
interface, or externally to systemd-networkd.
Endpoint=¶Sets an endpoint IP address or hostname, followed by a colon, and then
a port number. IPv6 address must be in the square brackets. For example,
"111.222.333.444:51820" for IPv4 and "[1111:2222::3333]:51820"
for IPv6 address. This endpoint will be updated automatically once to
the most recent source IP address and port of correctly
authenticated packets from the peer at configuration time.
PersistentKeepalive=¶Sets a seconds interval, between 1 and 65535 inclusive, of how often to send an authenticated empty packet to the peer for the purpose of keeping a stateful firewall or NAT mapping valid persistently. For example, if the interface very rarely sends traffic, but it might at anytime receive traffic from a peer, and it is behind NAT, the interface might benefit from having a persistent keepalive interval of 25 seconds. If set to 0 or "off", this option is disabled. By default or when unspecified, this option is off. Most users will not need this.
RouteTable=¶The table identifier for the routes to the addresses specified in the
AllowedIPs=. Takes a negative boolean value, one of the predefined names
"default", "main", and "local", names
defined in RouteTable= in
networkd.conf(5),
or a number in the range 1…4294967295. Defaults to unset, and the value specified in the
same setting in the [WireGuard] section will be used.
RouteMetric=¶The priority of the routes to the addresses specified in the
AllowedIPs=. Takes an integer in the range 0…4294967295. Defaults to
unset, and the value specified in the same setting in the [WireGuard] section will be used.
The [Bond] section accepts the following key:
Mode=¶Specifies one of the bonding policies. The default is
"balance-rr" (round robin). Possible values are
"balance-rr",
"active-backup",
"balance-xor",
"broadcast",
"802.3ad",
"balance-tlb", and
"balance-alb".
TransmitHashPolicy=¶Selects the transmit hash policy to use for slave
selection in balance-xor, 802.3ad, and tlb modes. Possible
values are
"layer2",
"layer3+4",
"layer2+3",
"encap2+3", and
"encap3+4".
LACPTransmitRate=¶Specifies the rate with which link partner transmits
Link Aggregation Control Protocol Data Unit packets in
802.3ad mode. Possible values are "slow",
which requests partner to transmit LACPDUs every 30 seconds,
and "fast", which requests partner to
transmit LACPDUs every second. The default value is
"slow".
MIIMonitorSec=¶Specifies the frequency that Media Independent Interface link monitoring will occur. A value of zero disables MII link monitoring. This value is rounded down to the nearest millisecond. The default value is 0.
UpDelaySec=¶Specifies the delay before a link is enabled after a
link up status has been detected. This value is rounded down
to a multiple of MIIMonitorSec=. The default value is
0.
DownDelaySec=¶Specifies the delay before a link is disabled after a
link down status has been detected. This value is rounded
down to a multiple of MIIMonitorSec=. The default value is
0.
LearnPacketIntervalSec=¶Specifies the number of seconds between instances where the bonding driver sends learning packets to each slave peer switch. The valid range is 1…0x7fffffff; the default value is 1. This option has an effect only for the balance-tlb and balance-alb modes.
AdSelect=¶Specifies the 802.3ad aggregation selection logic to use. Possible values are
"stable",
"bandwidth" and
"count".
AdActorSystemPriority=¶Specifies the 802.3ad actor system priority. Takes a number in the range 1…65535.
AdUserPortKey=¶Specifies the 802.3ad user defined portion of the port key. Takes a number in the range 0…1023.
AdActorSystem=¶Specifies the 802.3ad system MAC address. This cannot be a null or multicast address.
FailOverMACPolicy=¶Specifies whether the active-backup mode should set all slaves to
the same MAC address at the time of enslavement or, when enabled, to perform special handling of the
bond's MAC address in accordance with the selected policy. The default policy is none.
Possible values are
"none",
"active" and
"follow".
ARPValidate=¶Specifies whether or not ARP probes and replies should be
validated in any mode that supports ARP monitoring, or whether
non-ARP traffic should be filtered (disregarded) for link
monitoring purposes. Possible values are
"none",
"active",
"backup" and
"all".
ARPIntervalSec=¶Specifies the ARP link monitoring frequency. A value of 0 disables ARP monitoring. The default value is 0, and the default unit seconds.
ARPIPTargets=¶Specifies the IP addresses to use as ARP monitoring peers when
ARPIntervalSec= is greater than 0. These are the targets of the ARP
request sent to determine the health of the link to the targets.
Specify these values in IPv4 dotted decimal format. At least one IP
address must be given for ARP monitoring to function. The
maximum number of targets that can be specified is 16. The
default value is no IP addresses.
ARPAllTargets=¶Specifies the quantity of ARPIPTargets= that must be reachable
in order for the ARP monitor to consider a slave as being up.
This option affects only active-backup mode for slaves with
ARPValidate enabled. Possible values are
"any" and
"all".
PrimaryReselectPolicy=¶Specifies the reselection policy for the primary slave. This
affects how the primary slave is chosen to become the active slave
when failure of the active slave or recovery of the primary slave
occurs. This option is designed to prevent flip-flopping between
the primary slave and other slaves. Possible values are
"always",
"better" and
"failure".
ResendIGMP=¶Specifies the number of IGMP membership reports to be issued after a failover event. One membership report is issued immediately after the failover, subsequent packets are sent in each 200ms interval. The valid range is 0…255. Defaults to 1. A value of 0 prevents the IGMP membership report from being issued in response to the failover event.
PacketsPerSlave=¶Specify the number of packets to transmit through a slave before moving to the next one. When set to 0, then a slave is chosen at random. The valid range is 0…65535. Defaults to 1. This option only has effect when in balance-rr mode.
GratuitousARP=¶Specify the number of peer notifications (gratuitous ARPs and unsolicited IPv6 Neighbor Advertisements) to be issued after a failover event. As soon as the link is up on the new slave, a peer notification is sent on the bonding device and each VLAN sub-device. This is repeated at each link monitor interval (ARPIntervalSec or MIIMonitorSec, whichever is active) if the number is greater than 1. The valid range is 0…255. The default value is 1. These options affect only the active-backup mode.
AllSlavesActive=¶Takes a boolean. Specifies that duplicate frames (received on inactive ports) should be dropped when false, or delivered when true. Normally, bonding will drop duplicate frames (received on inactive ports), which is desirable for most users. But there are some times it is nice to allow duplicate frames to be delivered. The default value is false (drop duplicate frames received on inactive ports).
DynamicTransmitLoadBalancing=¶Takes a boolean. Specifies if dynamic shuffling of flows is enabled. Applies only for balance-tlb mode. Defaults to unset.
MinLinks=¶Specifies the minimum number of links that must be active before asserting carrier. The default value is 0.
For more detail information see Linux Ethernet Bonding Driver HOWTO
The [Xfrm] section accepts the following keys:
InterfaceId=¶Sets the ID/key of the xfrm interface which needs to be associated with a SA/policy. Can be decimal or hexadecimal, valid range is 1-0xffffffff. This is mandatory.
Independent=¶Takes a boolean. If false (the default), the xfrm interface must have an underlying device which can be used for hardware offloading.
For more detail information see Virtual XFRM Interfaces.
The [VRF] section only applies for
netdevs of kind "vrf" and accepts the
following key:
Table=¶The numeric routing table identifier. This setting is compulsory.
The [BatmanAdvanced] section only applies for netdevs of kind "batadv" and accepts
the following keys:
GatewayMode=¶Takes one of "off", "server", or "client".
A batman-adv node can either run in server mode (sharing its internet
connection with the mesh) or in client mode (searching for the most suitable internet connection
in the mesh) or having the gateway support turned off entirely (which is the default setting).
Aggregation=¶Takes a boolean value. Enables or disables aggregation of originator messages. Defaults to true.
BridgeLoopAvoidance=¶Takes a boolean value. Enables or disables avoidance of loops on bridges. Defaults to true.
DistributedArpTable=¶Takes a boolean value. Enables or disables the distributed ARP table. Defaults to true.
Fragmentation=¶Takes a boolean value. Enables or disables fragmentation. Defaults to true.
HopPenalty=¶The hop penalty setting allows one to modify batctl(8) preference for multihop routes vs. short routes. This integer value is applied to the TQ (Transmit Quality) of each forwarded OGM (Originator Message), thereby propagating the cost of an extra hop (the packet has to be received and retransmitted which costs airtime). A higher hop penalty will make it more unlikely that other nodes will choose this node as intermediate hop towards any given destination. The default hop penalty of '15' is a reasonable value for most setups and probably does not need to be changed. However, mobile nodes could choose a value of 255 (maximum value) to avoid being chosen as a router by other nodes. The minimum value is 0.
OriginatorIntervalSec=¶The value specifies the interval in seconds, unless another time unit is specified in which batman-adv floods the network with its protocol information. See systemd.time(7) for more information.
GatewayBandwidthDown=¶If the node is a server, this parameter is used to inform other nodes in the network about this node's internet connection download bandwidth in bits per second. Just enter any number suffixed with K, M, G or T (base 1000) and the batman-adv module will propagate the entered value in the mesh.
GatewayBandwidthUp=¶If the node is a server, this parameter is used to inform other nodes in the network about this node's internet connection upload bandwidth in bits per second. Just enter any number suffixed with K, M, G or T (base 1000) and the batman-adv module will propagate the entered value in the mesh.
RoutingAlgorithm=¶This can be either "batman-v" or "batman-iv" and describes which routing_algo
of batctl(8) to use. The algorithm
cannot be changed after interface creation. Defaults to "batman-v".
The [IPoIB] section only applies for netdevs of kind "ipoib" and accepts the
following keys:
PartitionKey=¶Takes an integer in the range 1…0xffff, except for 0x8000. Defaults to unset, and the kernel's default is used.
Mode=¶Takes one of the special values "datagram" or
"connected". Defaults to unset, and the kernel's default is used.
When "datagram", the Infiniband unreliable datagram (UD) transport is
used, and so the interface MTU is equal to the IB L2 MTU minus the IPoIB encapsulation
header (4 bytes). For example, in a typical IB fabric with a 2K MTU, the IPoIB MTU will be
2048 - 4 = 2044 bytes.
When "connected", the Infiniband reliable connected (RC) transport is
used. Connected mode takes advantage of the connected nature of the IB transport and allows
an MTU up to the maximal IP packet size of 64K, which reduces the number of IP packets needed
for handling large UDP datagrams, TCP segments, etc and increases the performance for large
messages.
IgnoreUserspaceMulticastGroup=¶Takes an boolean value. When true, the kernel ignores multicast groups handled by userspace. Defaults to unset, and the kernel's default is used.
The [WLAN] section only applies to WLAN interfaces, and accepts the following keys:
PhysicalDevice=¶Specifies the name or index of the physical WLAN device (e.g. "0" or
"phy0"). The list of the physical WLAN devices that exist on the host can be
obtained by iw phy command. This option is mandatory.
Type=¶Specifies the type of the interface. Takes one of the "ad-hoc",
"station", "ap", "ap-vlan",
"wds", "monitor", "mesh-point",
"p2p-client", "p2p-go", "p2p-device",
"ocb", and "nan". This option is mandatory.
WDS=¶Enables the Wireless Distribution System (WDS) mode on the interface. The mode is also
known as the "4 address mode". Takes a boolean value. Defaults to unset, and
the kernel's default will be used.
