Bridge interface are online, but the GUI applet(nm-applet) is not reflecting the same in RHEL7.1.
Issue
-
On RHEL7, when creating a bridge of eno1 (eth0) the Network Manager applet(
nm-applet) in GNOME3 displays the network as disconnected, even though it does work. When clicking it, it shows that both the bridge interface and the actual interface are online. Is this by design, or is there a tweak that makes the applet understand the bridge a bit better? -
If not using the bridged interface it works perfectly (remove the bridge interface and configure eno1 back to the way it was), the applet correctly displays interface status.
-
Why
nm-appletnot reflecting the correct status with bridge interface in RHEL7.1?
Environment
