 fail_over_mac
 
         Specifies whether active-backup mode should set all slaves to
-        the same MAC address (the traditional behavior), or, when
-        enabled, change the bond's MAC address when changing the
-        active interface (i.e., fail over the MAC address itself).
-
-        Fail over MAC is useful for devices that cannot ever alter
-        their MAC address, or for devices that refuse incoming
-        broadcasts with their own source MAC (which interferes with
-        the ARP monitor).
-
-        The down side of fail over MAC is that every device on the
-        network must be updated via gratuitous ARP, vs. just updating
-        a switch or set of switches (which often takes place for any
-        traffic, not just ARP traffic, if the switch snoops incoming
-        traffic to update its tables) for the traditional method.  If
-        the gratuitous ARP is lost, communication may be disrupted.
-
-        When fail over MAC is used in conjuction with the mii monitor,
-        devices which assert link up prior to being able to actually
-        transmit and receive are particularly susecptible to loss of
-        the gratuitous ARP, and an appropriate updelay setting may be
-        required.
-
-        A value of 0 disables fail over MAC, and is the default.  A
-        value of 1 enables fail over MAC.  This option is enabled
-        automatically if the first slave added cannot change its MAC
-        address.  This option may be modified via sysfs only when no
-        slaves are present in the bond.
-
-        This option was added in bonding version 3.2.0.
+        the same MAC address at enslavement (the traditional
+        behavior), or, when enabled, perform special handling of the
+        bond's MAC address in accordance with the selected policy.
+
+        Possible values are:
+
+        none or 0
+
+                This setting disables fail_over_mac, and causes
+                bonding to set all slaves of an active-backup bond to
+                the same MAC address at enslavement time.  This is the
+                default.
+
+        active or 1
+
+                The "active" fail_over_mac policy indicates that the
+                MAC address of the bond should always be the MAC
+                address of the currently active slave.  The MAC
+                address of the slaves is not changed; instead, the MAC
+                address of the bond changes during a failover.
+
+                This policy is useful for devices that cannot ever
+                alter their MAC address, or for devices that refuse
+                incoming broadcasts with their own source MAC (which
+                interferes with the ARP monitor).
+
+                The down side of this policy is that every device on
+                the network must be updated via gratuitous ARP,
+                vs. just updating a switch or set of switches (which
+                often takes place for any traffic, not just ARP
+                traffic, if the switch snoops incoming traffic to
+                update its tables) for the traditional method.  If the
+                gratuitous ARP is lost, communication may be
+                disrupted.
+
+                When this policy is used in conjuction with the mii
+                monitor, devices which assert link up prior to being
+                able to actually transmit and receive are particularly
+                susecptible to loss of the gratuitous ARP, and an
+                appropriate updelay setting may be required.
+
+        follow or 2
+
+                The "follow" fail_over_mac policy causes the MAC
+                address of the bond to be selected normally (normally
+                the MAC address of the first slave added to the bond).
+                However, the second and subsequent slaves are not set
+                to this MAC address while they are in a backup role; a
+                slave is programmed with the bond's MAC address at
+                failover time (and the formerly active slave receives
+                the newly active slave's MAC address).
+
+                This policy is useful for multiport devices that
+                either become confused or incur a performance penalty
+                when multiple ports are programmed with the same MAC
+                address.
+
+
+        The default policy is none, unless the first slave cannot
+        change its MAC address, in which case the active policy is
+        selected by default.
+
+        This option may be modified via sysfs only when no slaves are
+        present in the bond.
+
+        This option was added in bonding version 3.2.0.  The "follow"
+        policy was added in bonding version 3.3.0.
