Package: ifupdown-scripts-zg2
Version: 0.2-2.1
Severity: normal

Hi!

The check about uniqueness of MAC address is a bit problematic. For
example, when using a bonding device, I cannot set it using interfaces
that have been named :

iface member1 inet manual
   mac ca:fe:ab:ba:00:03
iface member2 inet manual
   mac ca:fe:ab:ba:00:04
iface aggregate inet manual
   slaves member1 member2

I get:
/etc/network/if-up.d/ifupdown-scripts-zg2-10eth-interfacename: ERR:
device with MAC address ca:fe:ab:ba:00:03 (vlan 0) already up as member1
for member1.
/etc/network/if-up.d/ifupdown-scripts-zg2-10eth-interfacename:
renaming aggregate, and disabling interface

Therefore, I need to configure it like this:

iface aggregate inet manual
  slaves eth0 eth1
  
Then, if I try to get a VLAN on top of this, I have the same problem:

iface thingy inet manual
  encapsulation dot1q
  master aggregate
  vlan-id 741
