Hi folks,

I am trying to use a bonding network interface as a bridge
for a virtual machine (kvm). Host and guest are both running
2.6.31.5. Problem: The guest does not receive the DHCPOFFER
reply sent by my dhcp server. There is no such problem if
the host uses just a single network interface instead of
bond0.

Looking at tcpdump on the Linux guest there are several dhcp
discover packages like

15:17:44.005306 00:16:36:2f:f1:d2>  ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff, ethertype IPv4 (0x0800), 
length 342: (tos 0x10, ttl 128, id 0, offset 0, flags [none], proto UDP (17), length 
328) 0.0.0.0.68>  255.255.255.255.67: BOOTP/DHCP, Request from 00:16:36:2f:f1:d2, 
length 300, xid 0x4c31213d, secs 10, Flags [none]
           Client-Ethernet-Address 00:16:36:2f:f1:d2 [|bootp]

The dhcp server receives these packages, and sends out
a reply

This reply never shows up on the guest.



Can you tcpdump on bond0, br0, vnet0, and the guest's interface to see where the packet is lost?
