SolutionSee steps below.1.
Bring up the virtual controller on 5.3-119 SD or above, if the
controller is on any previous, upgrade to 5.3-119 or above, as this
feature support only from 5.3-119.
2.

0 Adapter]

9.
Configure Dual Bonding in the Controller with Dual Ethernet Active
Configuration using the below commands (you can set static, I am using
DHCP in this example)
default(15)#
default(15)# configure
terminal
default(15)(config)# bonding
dual
default(15)(config)# interface FastEthernet
1
default(15)(config-if-FastEth)# ip address
dhcp
default(15)(config-if-FastEth)# exit
Warning:
Controller reboot is required for the configuration changes to
be
effective.
default(15)(config)# interface
FastEthernet 2
default(15)(config-if-FastEth)# type
active
default(15)(config-if-FastEth)# ip address
dhcp
default(15)(config-if-FastEth)# exit
Warning:
Controller reboot is required for the configuration changes to
be
effective.
default(15)(config)#
exit
default(15)#
default(15)#
default(15)#
copy running-config startup-config
Building configuration.
Please wait ...
default(15)#
10.
Save the Configuration.
11. Reload the
Controller.
12. After
Controller reboot, Controller will come up with Dual Ethernet Active
configuration with two
interfaces.
