<bond_id>

Bond identifier, an integer between 1 and 1024.

<bond_mode>

Bond interface mode:

• active-backup - Selects the Primary slave interface as the Active slave interface. If the Primary slave interface goes down, it fails over to a different slave interface.
• xor - All UP slave interfaces are Active for Load Sharing. Traffic is assigned to Active interfaces based on the transmit hash policy (Layer2 or Layer3+4).
• 8023AD -Dynamically uses Active slave interfaces to share the traffic load based on the LACP protocol. This protocol uses full interface monitoring between the Security Gateway and a switch.
• abxor - Slave interfaces are assigned to sub-groups called bundles. Only one bundle is active at a time. All slave interfaces in the active bundle share the traffic load. The system assigns traffic to all interfaces in the active bundle based on the defined transmit hash policy.

Note - The Round-Robin option is not supported on the 61000/41000 Security System.
