** Description changed: - Devices that are listed with allow-hotplug in /etc/network/interfaces do - not come up when they are hotplugged. "ip addr" shows that these devices - are down. + SRU Justification: + [Impact] + Devices that are listed with allow-hotplug in /etc/network/interfaces do not come up when they are hotplugged. "ip addr" shows that these devices are down. + [Test Case] Steps to reproduce: 1) Install Ubuntu 12.04, 13.10, or 14.04 in a virtual machine (e.g. with libvirt) with one network device. 2) Modify /etc/network/interfaces to auto lo iface lo inet loopback allow-hotplug eth0 iface eth0 inet dhcp allow-hotplug eth1 iface eth1 inet dhcp allow-hotplug eth2 iface eth2 inet dhcp 3) Boot your virtual machine. 4) Type "ip addr" to show your network devices. It should show eth0 which should be up (but isn't) 5) Add/Hotplug one NIC to your virtual machine. 6) "ip addr" should show that eth1 is up too (but isn't) + + [Regression Potential] + Patch is already in Utopic.
