https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=412476 Summary: Incompatibility with KVM Switch Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: Final Platform: i686 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.0 Status: NEW Severity: Blocker Priority: P5 - None Component: Booting AssignedTo: jsrain(a)novell.com ReportedBy: andrew(a)joako.net QAContact: jsrain(a)novell.com Found By: Corporate Interoperability Test I have a "Zonet KVM3202" 2-port KVM switch. When the USB cable is connected to the openSUSE 11.0 machine the system hangs before sys v. init can run. When the USB cable is unplugged the system boots as normal. However with the KVM switch I can navigate the GRUB menu with no issues and if it is plugged in after the system has booted it works fine. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

[Bug 305333] New: Bridge and bridge port ifup order

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=305333 Summary: Bridge and bridge port ifup order Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Beta 2 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: Network AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: jfunk(a)funktronics.ca QAContact: qa(a)suse.de Found By: --- I have a rather complex network setup, so I will just list the relevant parts: eth - Physical ethernet interface, connected to a vlan trunk vlan4 - VLAN 4, on eth dot23 - A bridge containing vlan4 and my default route It appears that the network init script brings up non-physical interfaces alphabetically, so it will bring these devices in the following order: eth dot23 vlan4 Since vlan4 doesn't exist when dot23 is brought up, it is never added to the bridge, and I have to manually add it or restart the bridge. One way to solve this, of course, is to make the init script bring up any interfaces listed in BRIDGE_PORTS before bringing up the bridge. Another way is to also define port membership in the port ifcfg files. This is actually something I have been doing for a long while now with a custom {ifup,ifdown}-bridgeport script in /etc/sysconfig/network/scripts, which I will attach. Basically, I use Qemu and OpenVPN quite a bit, and I usually want them bridged to one place to another automatically. I configure them to create tap devices, with descriptive names (when you have 16 or more active interfaces at any one time, descriptive helps :-). I then create an ifcfg file like so: BOOTPROTO='none' NAME='Some Qemu Instance External Interface' STARTMODE='auto' USERCONTROL='yes' POST_UP_SCRIPT='ifup-bridgeport' PRE_DOWN_SCRIPT='ifdown-bridgeport' BRIDGENAME='dot23' If I called it ifcfg-foo and had Qemu create a tap device called foo, It would automatically be bridged to vlan4 on creation. This setup has been working quite well for me, and it would be nice if similar functionality were available in openSUSE by default. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

[Bug 375834] New: ppp over vlan-tagged ethernet - occasional network startup order problems (rcnetwork script doesnt properly start ethernet, vlan and dsl0 in this order, but eth dsl0 (which then fails) then vlan)

Their union contains # AVAILABLE and MANDATORY and all of them have to be set up when starting # # MANDATORY_IFACES these must be up and well configured for success # At first get DIALUP and TUNNEL while IFS=- read a b; do test -z "$b" && continue b=`type_filter $b` case "`get_iface_type_from_config $b`" in lo|eth|tr|wlan|irda|ip6tnl|mip6mnha) continue ;; *ppp|dsl|modem|isdn) DIALUP_IFACES="$DIALUP_IFACES $b" ;; vlan|bond|bridge|ipip|sit|gre) TUNNEL_IFACES="$TUNNEL_IFACES $b" ............................ im not a programmer or networking expert, but to my undersanding the vlan needs to be closer to ethernet and way before a ppp devices as ppp can be over/on ethernet...... maybe other scenarios should also be taken into account, i didnt think about bonding, bridging, gre and so forth...... thanks for a quick fix or hint how to make my vdsl2 startup to work more reliable and to properly bring up the interfaces that depend on each other. best regards. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

[Bug 212053] New: Set promote_secondaries=1 by default
by bugzilla_noreply＠novell.com 13 Feb '09

13 Feb '09

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=212053 Summary: Set promote_secondaries=1 by default Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Alpha 5 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Network AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: kernel01(a)hailfinger.org QAContact: qa(a)suse.de /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/*/promote_secondaries is currently set to 0 by default. Changing that to 1 would be a user-visible change for users with multiple ip addresses on one interface, but the changed behaviour is IMO less surprising than the current one. Description for promote_secondaries: Deleting the primary IP address of an interface forces deletion all secondary IP addresses unless promote_secondaries is set. This side effect of killing all secondary addresses without warning (and without documentation about this behaviour) has caused me and lots of others quite some grief. Scenario: You are logged into a remote box on one of its secondary IP addresses (to be able to change the primary IP address without disrupting your work), delete the primary IP address to later add the new primary IP address and suddenly find out that the secondary IP address you were using for administration has vanished. No way to connect to the box (it has no IP address anymore), so you have to ask someone to flip the power switch and hope it works with the old config after reboot. If promote_secondaries had been set, the disaster would not have happened. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
