           Summary: bridge initialization ifup script should honor
                    configuration of bridge port devices
           Product: openSUSE 10.3
           Version: Alpha 4plus
          Platform: i586
        OS/Version: openSUSE 10.3
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P5 - None
         Component: Basesystem

Bridge port devices might have configuration settings that need to be retained
as bridge port members (like link promiscuity mode, MTU, and so on). While it
might not make sense for a bridge port device to have an IP identity, many of
the ifcfg-ethX settings are still applicable. The current init script just sets
the link mode before adding/removing the interface, which disregards the
constituent device's configuration settings. Please use ifdown/ifup.
