Public bug reported: Hey there,
we encountered an error where the ip command in batch mode will fail when trying to delete neighbor entries that aren't there anymore even though the `-force` option is active. $ ip -force -b /dev/stdin <<EOF neighbor del 10.244.23.116 dev br-ex address del 10.244.23.199 dev bgp-nic EOF This seems to be similar to the patch submitted by a cumulus engineer: https://lkml.kernel.org/netdev/1426645592-4002-1-git-send-email-ro...@cumulusnetworks.com/ https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/network/iproute2/iproute2.git/tree/ip/ipneigh.c#n213 Unfortunately this feature is very important to us, as we need to make sure that the entries are gone for good and need the speed of the batch mode to process the updates.
