This plug-in monitors the current state of a bonding interface. If the total bonding state of the interface is down, then the check goes to CRIT, for status degraded it returns WARN. If at least one slave interface is down or not the expected slave is currently active, then the check gets WARN.

If the bonding mode is according to IEEE 802.3ad (Dynamic link aggregation), the aggregation IDs are compared. A mismatch results in the configured state (default WARN).

If the bonding mode does not match the expected bonding mode then the check goes to CRIT by default.

Discovery

One service is created for each {active} bonding interface. During inventory the current active interface is considered to be the primary interface. This is only relevant if you configure a detection of a change in the active interface.
