Bond interface does not detect link failure
Issue
- Bonding interface cannot not recognize when the link of a slave goes down.
- Speed or duplex reported by the bond may remain as unknown in case of a link failure.
- Fail over activity on active-backup mode does not take place when one of the slaves is not available.
- Bonding failover is not happening when cable gets disconnected
Environment
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux (All versions)
- Bonding
