NAME

change_active_interface - change the active slave into the specified one  

SYNOPSIS

"SYNOPSIS"

void change_active_interface (struct bonding * bond, struct slave * new);  

ARGUMENTS

bond
our bonding struct
new
the new slave to make the active one
 

DESCRIPTION

Set the new slave to the bond's settings and unset them on the old current_slave. Setting include flags, mc-list, promiscuity, allmulti, etc.

If new's link state is BOND_LINK_BACK we'll set it to BOND_LINK_UP, because it is apparently the best available slave we have, even though its updelay hasn't timed out yet.
