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!
