Hi,
I am facing issue with secondary
ip addresses in 2.6.14 kernel after setting the proc entry “promote_secondaries”
to 1.
Code to set proc entry “promote_secondaries.
net.ipv4.conf.default.promote_secondaries
= 1
cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/bond1/promote_secondaries
1
Problem statement:-
Secondary ip addresses become
non functional after deleting the primary ip address. Even self ping to
secondary ip address does not work.
I can not see this issue with
secondary ip address in 2.6.27 kernel.
Query: -
It is a known issue in 2.6.14
kernel? Is there any configuration options that needs to be set for secondary
ip addresses to be functional in 2.6.14?
Add IP address on
bond1 interface:-
ip add add 10.1.2.3/24
dev bond1
ip add add 10.1.2.4/24
dev bond1
ip add add 10.1.2.5/24
dev bond1
ip add add 10.1.2.6/24
dev bond1
ip add add 10.1.2.7/24
dev bond1
ip add show bond1
12: bond1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,MASTER,UP>
mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue
link/ether
00:80:f9:8b:b6:f8 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

Delete the primary
IP address:
ip add delete 10.1.2.3/24

ip add show bond1
