Em(4) NIC link cycling when member of bridge
-
Added a second machine to my setup and confirmed that all NICs on the bridge cycle when I swap ports on one.
It may be worth noting at this point that the reason why I'm on the 2.3 beta is because on 2.2.x, the realtek NIC disappears when the HP/Intel NIC is added to the machine. Seems like any previous fixes for the issue in this thread might be related to the issue with the missing realtek NIC.

Hmmm I have similar problem with em nics but they are not in the bridge. When I unplug one (wan dhcp) web interface stops to respond and never come back.
If I unplug pppoe, link never comes back in console I see something about watchdog resseting…
I never had any issues with nics until now.
Can this be related? -
Can this be related?
No, this strictly affects bridges, please start your own thread describing what you're doing and seeing if you're still having issues after the change back in the other thread.

Hi cmb all fine here with latest snaps.

This should be fixed now.

Updated to 2.3.b.20160217.1500 and tested with one DHCP client. Looks good! :D Thanks

patch was reverted.

@jwt:
patch was reverted.
I'm taking this to mean that I should hold off on updating until the patch/fix is reintroduced.

No, it was the change that introduced the problem that was reverted, and the problem that change fixed was fixed in a different way that doesn't trigger this problem. You're fine.
