Package: bridge-utils
Version: 1.5-9
Severity: important

We have the following setup:
br0 connected to eth0.6 (vlan 6)
br1 connected to eth0.7 (vlan 7)
br2 connected to eth0

When shutting down br2 (ifdown br2), it takes down eth0, thereby also shutting 
down the link for eth0.6 and eth0.7 and disconnecting the machine.

This seems to me like undesirable, eth0.6 and eth0.7 are still in use and 
should stay up. Can it be changed that eth0 does not go down when it is still 
in used in other places? If not, is there a way where I could shut down br2 
without breaking the rest of the setup?

Thanks!

Sebastian

I haven't had more feedback on this and this configuration (binding eth0 and
its vlan subinterfaces) seems unsupported, I'm closing the bug.

Regards.
