@john.c Interesting information about the strong v. weak host model.
Active-active and LACP bonds will split the network traffic between the NICs, while an active-passive bond only uses the primary. WHat type of bonds do you have set up?
It’s from analysis of the posts above and digging into the networking stack of the Linux kernel, I’d also noticed this myself through bonding ports of my setup, into a similar network setup, then suddenly getting this kind of event, everything is setup correctly, but it’s the packets going out on the wrong networks as packet flow analysis monitoring, via special monitoring modules made for OpenMetrics revealed.
Essentially using similar methods to tracing unauthorised connections or studying how water and air behaves. But in this case understanding why and how the packets weren’t travelling where they should be and thus at times not reaching the specific destination they should on the particular port.
