Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***
* What led up to the situation?
i need to create multiple veth pair interfaces, preferably from busybox...
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
mc36@noti:~$
mc36@noti:~$ sudo ip link add veth9a type veth peer name veth9b
mc36@noti:~$ ip link show veth9a
9: veth9a@veth9b: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,M-DOWN> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN
mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
link/ether 42:65:ad:1b:c4:da brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
mc36@noti:~$ sudo ip link del veth9a
mc36@noti:~$ sudo /bin/busybox ip link add veth9a type veth peer name veth9b
mc36@noti:~$ ip link show veth9a
11: veth9a@veth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,M-DOWN> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN
mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
link/ether 42:65:ad:1b:c4:da brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
mc36@noti:~$ sudo ip link del veth9a
mc36@noti:~$
* What was the outcome of this action?
as you can see when i used iproute2 then it freates veth9a-veth9b pair, but
when i used busybox, it created veth9a-veth0 pair
* What outcome did you expect instead?
busybox's ip should honor peer name as iproute2's ip does
