Migrating between nodes with different network configurations

I have 4 nodes that are all currently setup with vmbr0 and all VMs/Containers are connected to vmbr0. Migration works well between all of the nodes.

One of the nodes I am planning on converting to a bonded network so VMs/containers will be connected to bond0 for this node. How will migration work with the differing network names? qm migrate seems to have a targetstorage option, but no such option for networking.

Will I have to setup 1 NIC Bonded networks for my other nodes so they are all bond0? One of the nodes is hooked up to a pretty basic switch which doesn't support LAG at all, will that be an issue?

Thanks!
 
if you have vmbr0 on both nodes, it should work without any problem.

you can have vmbr0+bond on 1 node, and vmbr0+eth0 on another node, no problem.

Ah so I can set bond0 as a Bridge Port for vmbr0? I thought I would have to remove vmbr0 and replace it with bond0.
