You can use network bonding, also known as _link aggregration_, to combine many network interfaces into a single, logical interface. This means that you can use different modes for handling how network traffic distributes across bonded interfaces. Each mode provides fault tolerance and some modes provide load balancing capabilities to your network. Red Hat supports Open vSwitch (OVS) bonding and kernel bonding.

The Kubernetes NMState Operator provides a Kubernetes API for performing state-driven network configuration across the {product-title} cluster's nodes with NMState. The Kubernetes NMState Operator provides users with functionality to configure various network interface types, DNS, and routing on cluster nodes. Additionally, the daemons on the cluster nodes periodically report on the state of each node's network interfaces to the API server.

`NodeNetworkConfigurationPolicy`:: Describes the requested network configuration on nodes. You update the node network configuration, including adding and removing interfaces, by applying a `NodeNetworkConfigurationPolicy` CR to the cluster.
`NodeNetworkConfigurationEnactment`:: Reports the network policies enacted upon each node.
