Vorlon,

On investigation, comparing steps , behaviour with Ubuntu and Other
distros, adding below data.

Other distros, nmcli behaviour
Deactivation of bond steps via our script/code:
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
1)Deactivate slaves [nmcli c down <slave_uuid> ]
2)Deactivate bond  [nmcli c down <bond_uuid> ]
Result : All slaves , bond get deactivated. VLANs created on top of bond 
automatically get deactivated.

Activation of bond steps via our script/code:
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
1)Activate slaves [nmcli c up <slave_uuid>]
2)Activate bond [nmcli c up <bond_uuid> ]
Result : All slaves , bond get activated .  VLANs created on top of bond 
automatically get activated.

In Ubuntu + nmcli :
++++++++++++++++++++
Deactivation of bond:
1)Deactivate slaves [nmcli c down <slave_uuid> ]
2)Deactivate bond  [nmcli c down <bond_uuid> ]
Result : All slaves , bond get deactivated. VLANs created on top of bond 
automatically get deactivated.

Activation of bond:
1)Activate slaves [nmcli c up <slave_uuid>]
2)Activate bond [nmcli c up <bond_uuid> ]
Result : All slaves , bond get activated .  VLANs created on top of bond 
##FAILED## to activate.

Workaround to make autoactivation for vlan work is as follows:
Deactivation of bond:
1)Deactivate bond  [nmcli c down <bond_uuid> ]
Result : Bond get deactivated. Slaves part of bond and VLANs created on top of 
bond automatically get deactivated.

Activation of bond:
1)Activate bond [nmcli c up <bond_uuid> ]
Result : Bond gets activated . Slaves part of bond and  VLANs created on top of 
bond automatically get activated.

But this workaround will not work in other distros. Other distros
explicitly needed the slaves to be activated.

I am not sure how could i simulate above steps behaviour with other utility 
like ip commands. Any suggestions there?
I thought of using "ip link set bond_device down " as equivalent to "nmcli c 
down  <bond_uuid>" but they differ. "ip link set bond_device down" only brings 
the link down for bond where as "nmcli c down <bond_uuid>" brings the bond 
device down and also detaches slave from bond.

I also notice "nmcli c up <bond_device>" behaviour is different in Ubuntu and 
Other distros.
In ubuntu , it probably assumes all slaves attached to bond, bond device itself 
and vlans created on top of bond as one entity and activated all.
In other distros , it assumes slave as not part of it , hence only bond device 
is active. Slave and VLANs remain inactive.

So this is probably bug in one of the distros or probably expected
behaviour of nmcli component in different distros. Any
suggestions/inputs here ?

  ---Steps to Reproduce---
   1. Created a network bond with static IP address (and no IPv6 address); 
active backup mode; ARP polling; single slave.

  2. Created a VLAN using said network bond with static IPv4 address
  (and no IPv6 address).

  3. Can ping from the appliance to a target on both links (the parent
  bond and the VLAN).

  4. Switched to another slave for the created bond

  5. Can still ping from the appliance to a target via the parent bond;
  however, cannot ping to the target via the VLAN.

  =============================================================================
  Detailed steps:

  1. Initial setup:
  ============
  root@S36MANDAR:~# nmcli c s
  NAME                UUID                                  TYPE      DEVICE  
  enc1a80             c3a2037d-60a3-3cb4-9234-45aed55f7093  ethernet  enc1a80 
  enc8f00             2423add6-1464-3765-877c-a214dc497492  ethernet  enc8f00 
  enc1d40             ff2d70f8-130e-3dc6-ab24-1dba07563605  ethernet  --      

  2. Create Netwrok-bond with one slave:
  ================================
  root@S36MANDAR:~# nmcli c add type bond con-name mybond1 ifname mybond1 
ipv4.method disabled ipv6.method ignore
  Connection 'mybond1' (4b918a65-43a6-4ec3-b3c4-388ed52b116d) successfully 
added.

  root@S36MANDAR:~# nmcli con add type ethernet ifname enc1d40 master mybond1
  Connection 'bond-slave-enc1d40' (cfe4b245-3dda-4f45-b7b4-6d40d144a02f) 
successfully added.
  root@S36MANDAR:~# nmcli con up bond-slave-enc1d40
  Connection successfully activated (D-Bus active path: 
/org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/ActiveConnection/18)
  root@S36MANDAR:~# nmcli c s
  NAME                UUID                                  TYPE      DEVICE  
  bond-slave-enc1d40  cfe4b245-3dda-4f45-b7b4-6d40d144a02f  ethernet  enc1d40 
  enc1a80             c3a2037d-60a3-3cb4-9234-45aed55f7093  ethernet  enc1a80 
  enc8f00             2423add6-1464-3765-877c-a214dc497492  ethernet  enc8f00 
  mybond1             4b918a65-43a6-4ec3-b3c4-388ed52b116d  bond      mybond1 
  enc1d40             ff2d70f8-130e-3dc6-ab24-1dba07563605  ethernet  --      

  3. Create vlan over mybond1:
  =======================
  root@S36MANDAR:~# nmcli con add type vlan con-name vlanbond.100 ifname 
vlanbond.100 dev mybond1 id 100  ipv4.method disabled ipv6.method ignore
  Connection 'vlanbond.100' (e054df42-97a0-492b-b2c9-b9571077493e) successfully 
added.
  root@S36MANDAR:~# nmcli c s
  NAME                UUID                                  TYPE      DEVICE    
   
  bond-slave-enc1d40  cfe4b245-3dda-4f45-b7b4-6d40d144a02f  ethernet  enc1d40   
   
  enc1a80             c3a2037d-60a3-3cb4-9234-45aed55f7093  ethernet  enc1a80   
   
  enc8f00             2423add6-1464-3765-877c-a214dc497492  ethernet  enc8f00   
   
  mybond1             4b918a65-43a6-4ec3-b3c4-388ed52b116d  bond      mybond1   
   
  vlanbond.100        e054df42-97a0-492b-b2c9-b9571077493e  vlan      
vlanbond.100 
  enc1d40             ff2d70f8-130e-3dc6-ab24-1dba07563605  ethernet  --        
   

  4. Reactivate bond : 
  =================
  root@S36MANDAR:~# nmcli con up mybond1
  Connection successfully activated (master waiting for slaves) (D-Bus active 
path: /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/ActiveConnection/30)

  root@S36MANDAR:~# nmcli c s
  NAME                UUID                                  TYPE      DEVICE  
  enc1a80             c3a2037d-60a3-3cb4-9234-45aed55f7093  ethernet  enc1a80 
  enc1d40             ff2d70f8-130e-3dc6-ab24-1dba07563605  ethernet  enc1d40 
  enc8f00             2423add6-1464-3765-877c-a214dc497492  ethernet  enc8f00 
  mybond1             4b918a65-43a6-4ec3-b3c4-388ed52b116d  bond      mybond1 
  bond-slave-enc1d40  cfe4b245-3dda-4f45-b7b4-6d40d144a02f  ethernet  --      
  encw1810            4ddeb38e-d5f7-3814-abb7-be50b8da874e  ethernet  --      
  vlanbond.100        e054df42-97a0-492b-b2c9-b9571077493e  vlan      --      

  As is seen, vlan(vlanbond.100) did not get activated

  Now, if manually I make vlan connection up, it gets activated:

  root@S36MANDAR:~# nmcli  con up vlanbond.100
  NAME                UUID                                  TYPE      DEVICE    
   
  bond-slave-enc1d40  cfe4b245-3dda-4f45-b7b4-6d40d144a02f  ethernet  enc1d40   
   
  enc1a80             c3a2037d-60a3-3cb4-9234-45aed55f7093  ethernet  enc1a80   
   
  enc8f00             2423add6-1464-3765-877c-a214dc497492  ethernet  enc8f00   
   
  mybond1             4b918a65-43a6-4ec3-b3c4-388ed52b116d  bond      mybond1   
   
  vlanbond.100        e054df42-97a0-492b-b2c9-b9571077493e  vlan      
vlanbond.100 
  enc1d40             ff2d70f8-130e-3dc6-ab24-1dba07563605  ethernet  --        
   
  encw1810            4ddeb38e-d5f7-3814-abb7-be50b8da874e  ethernet  --
