Hi Guys, We are using Openvswitch networking and we have a physical 1G management network and two 10G physical links bonded. The physical interfaces show a state of UP when doing "ip a".
However for the OVS bond, bridges and internal ports we get a state of" UNKNOWN". Is this expected? Everything else is essentially working OK - The GUI marks the bond, bridge and internal ports as active and traffic is working as expected, but I don't know why the state of these is not UP? An example of an internal port OVS Configuration in /etc/network/interfaces (as setup by the GUI): allow-vmbr1 vlan233 iface vlan233 inet static address 10.1.33.24 netmask 255.255.255.0 ovs_type OVSIntPort ovs_bridge vmbr1 ovs_options tag=233 and ip a output: 14: vlan233: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state *UNKNOWN* group default qlen 1000 link/ether e2:53:9f:28:cb:2b brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff inet 10.1.33.24/24 brd 10.1.33.255 scope global vlan233 valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever inet6 fe80::e053:9fff:fe28:cb2b/64 scope link valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever The version we're running is detailed below.
