Hello!


We are building Debian bullsye images for our bare-metal servers, and 
there is a bit of ambiguity on 'canonical way to configure network bonds'.
Wiki gives options with ifenslave and systemd-networkd, and there is an 
option to do it with post-up and ip route.
ifenslave is broken due to #991930, but it can be easily patched.


Which way is least surprise for a Debian user (for you)?

1. bond-slaves in interfaces

Example:

auto bond0

   iface bond0

   inet static

   bond-slaves eth0 eth1


2. systemd-networkd unit

.netdev in /etc/systemd/network.

3. Manual operations in interfaces:

post-up ip link add bond0 type bond
...

Which way is least surprise for you?
