Hello, I'm running following version:
clonezilla-live-20201102-groovy-amd64.iso
During network configuration there's no choice for use tagged VLAN on choosen interface.
Also created bonded interface has no choice for its type - it's assuming LACP only.
I'm currently trying to configure network on a bare metal server with Intel X520 SFP+ double port NIC (reported as Intel Corporation 82599ES 10-Gigabit SFI/SFP+ Networ Connection by Clonezilla's linux kernel).
Because of missing VLAN configuration I've created LACP bond via GUI "Which network device you want to configure?" from these two 10Gbps ports and I've added tag for VLAN which I have configured on network side:
sudo vconfig add bond0 123
then I've set network address:
sudo ifconfig bond0.123 10.0.0.22 netmask 255.255.255.0 up
and the default route:
sudo ip route add default via 10.0.0.0.254
After that everything works.
I see vconfig will be removed soon and replaced by ip(route2) commands. Can You add as feature request:
VLAN tagging question
BOND type question
to Network configuration wizard?

Got it. We will try to implement this in the future. Thanks.

I belive for iproute2 it will be something like this:
ip link add link bond0 name bond0.100 type vlan id 123
ip link set dev bond0.123 up
ip addr add 10.0.0.22/24 brd 10.0.0.255 dev bond0.100
For other bond modes it may be tricky as they requires additional values:
downdelay
updelay
primary (The primary option is only valid for active-backup(1), balance-tlb (5) and balance-alb (6) modes)
xmit_hash_policy (for 802.3ad)
so I think bond modes
0 - balance-rr
1 - active-backup
2 - balance-xor
4 - 802.3ad
are most common and should be implemented.
Can't imagine how it can speed up deployment of multiple destinations at once.
Great. Thanks for that. We will try to find some time to work on that. Or if you have time, maybe you can patch this one:

Then after testing, we can merge that.
Appreciate.
