<shellcmd> in interfaces not working

4o4rh

if I run below from ssh cli, it works

ifconfig igb2 -txcsum -rxcsum -tso4 -tso6 -lro -txcsum6 -rxcsum6 -vlanhwtso

but for my 8 port i3, even though i have disabled all in the advanced menu,
igb0 and igb2 show with them enabled.

on a separate note, all interfaces get an ipv6 address, even though ip6 is disabled in the menu

I added below, but does not seem to work

<lan>
<descr><![CDATA[INT_KG_SPARE]]></descr>
<if>igb2</if>
<enable></enable>
<spoofmac></spoofmac>
<ipaddr>192.168.x.x</ipaddr>
<subnet>26</subnet>
<gateway></gateway>
<ipaddrv6></ipaddrv6>
<subnetv6></subnetv6>
<gatewayv6></gatewayv6>
<shellcmd>ifconfig igb2 -txcsum -rxcsum -tso4 -tso6 -lro -txcsum6 -rxcsum6 -vlanhwtso</shellcmd>
</lan>

@gwaitsi i solved the problem by installing the shellcmd package and install via the package. now have the desired results.

i am still curious why each interface gets an ipv6 if it is meant to be disabled

Your interfaces will get IPv6 link-local addresses. Those are harmless.

shellcmds don't go in the interfaces config like that. They would never get run there. They should be in the main <system> section, you will see the package has added them there.
