+The ''ifenslave'' program is used to set up bonding for network devices. This must be used in conjunction with support for bonding in the Linux kernel.
+Program syntax is ''ifenslave [options] master slave [slave..]''.
+Options include:
+  * **-a** - show information about all devices
+  * **-c** - change active state
+  * **-d** - remove slave interface from the bonding device
+  * **-f** - force action, even if one of the interfaces doesn't look like an Ethernet device
+  * **-v** - verbose output
+An example of creating a bonding device, using two interfaces, where ''eth0'' is the master and ''eth1'' is the slave:
+<code>
+ifenslave eth0 eth1
+</code>
+The new device name is ''bond0'', and can be set as normal using ''ifconfig'', ''ip'', ''ifup'', etc.
+Check the bonding interface:
+<code>
+cat /proc/net/bonding/bond0
+</code>
