Hi,

I made an interesting experience. I've migrated one Linux server and one Windows Server to KVM VMs. The Linux server was connected to the LAN with two gigabit links configured as a bond. The Linux server provided DHCP services.

Now my Proxmox server hosts both systems as VMs - and - the host is again connected with two gigabit links configured as bond. The difference is that the bond is enslaved by the the bridge. Now I found that DHCP does not work on on the bridge.

I've other setups without bonding where DHCP works perfectly.

Is there a way to get DHCP working on the bridge with a enslaved bond ?

TIA
Matthias
 
It works, that is how our current configuration is.

You don't tell much about how its configured, but make sure that the bridge that the bond is assigned to is the same bridge used for the linux server.
