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
inet 172.25.0.3/16 brd 172.25.255.255 scope global bond1
inet 10.1.2.3/24 scope global bond1
inet 10.1.2.4/24 scope global secondary bond1
inet 10.1.2.5/24 scope global secondary bond1
inet 10.1.2.6/24 scope global secondary bond1
inet 10.1.2.7/24 scope global secondary bond1
inet6 fe80::200:ff:fe00:0/64 scope link
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
Delete the primary IP address:
ip add delete 10.1.2.3/24 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
inet 172.25.0.3/16 brd 172.25.255.255 scope global bond1
inet 10.1.2.4/24 scope global bond1
inet 10.1.2.5/24 scope global secondary bond1
inet 10.1.2.6/24 scope global secondary bond1
inet 10.1.2.7/24 scope global secondary bond1
inet6 fe80::200:ff:fe00:0/64 scope link
