Yes you can. I've done it my server board. The bonded nic just takes the primary nic MAC address. The option still needs to be configured at ethX, not bond0

@subzero79

Is it possible to explain me how to setup the bond with two nics?
My system only has two nics.

I tried it at friday and crashed everything.

You create the bond with one nic only add static ip, save and apply. Then you have two interfaces bond0 and eth0. Delete then from omv webui eth0, save and apply. Access no omv interface on the new ip address, edit bond0 to add this time eth0 to the bond. save and apply
