+resend_igmp
+
+       Specifies the number of IGMP membership reports to be issued after
+       a failover event. One membership report is issued immediately after
+       the failover, subsequent packets are sent in each 200ms interval.
+
+       The valid range is 0 - 255; the default value is 1. This option
+       was added for bonding version 3.7.0.
