Why communication over a VLAN tagged bond interface fails ?
Issue
- If
VLAN
is configured on a physical interface then communication with other hosts on same network works fine, if same IP is configured inVLAN
interface configured overbond
interface then communication breaks. - When source system is sending the
ICMP ping request
packets to destination it is properly getting sent withVLAN tag
. But when that packets are reaching the destination system theVLAN tag
is not seen on those packets. - Similar issue of VLAN tag is not happening when VLAN is configured directly on physical interface.
Environment
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.7
