be2net, bonding, networking fails after going back from promiscuous mode to normal mode

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

When setting the card to promiscuous mode (like after using tcpdump, but using ip link set is also enough), after returning the card to normal operation mode, traffic will stop coming through.

Environment

  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux
  • bonding
  • HP hardware (other might be affected too)
