Working NUC Proxmox cluster on NUC's. Added a second interface to the bridge by using the USB 3.0 port on the NUC. Interface does work, tested with Iperf3 multiple times. Issue is that I if both the embedded ethernet and the USB Nic are plugged, when the Proxmoxe node comes up after a shutdown and start, the embedded 1Gb NIC has all the active connections according to "bridge fdb show". If I unplug the embedded ethernet port and shutdown and restart, the USB Nic shows all the connections properly and the Iperf3 test shows the correct thoughput.
Question is how to wnsure that the USB Nic comes up as primary if both interfaces are plugged in? I know that "bond" has a option to specify the primary interface but I was trying to avoid adding complexity to my config.
