Question does the Ethernet MAC of the bond0 (Round Robin) suppose or always match the (active or one of) the NIC’s MAC?
and
when I create the Br0 (bridge) will it match the Bond0 MAC or have its own MAC? Because on my Tumbleweed the bond0 MAC is the same on all the NIC’s but the bridge0 has it own unique MAC.
I’m assuming this will be the same on the Leap correct?
Well after creating the bridge0, it appears it does the same as Tumbleweed except the bridge0 MAC is the same as the bond0 MAC:

So I’m assuming this is the characteristics of bonding. Can anyone link me to good documentation explaining the details of bonding and bridging and it Bond Modes.
Thanks!..
Yes, that is the default.
Own MAC. Bridge is misnomer, it is actually the interface connected to the underlying “proper” bridge and as every interface it has its own (hopefully, unique) MAC.
