Removal of Physical Interface in Generic Trunking and 802.3ad Mode
In Generic Trunking and 802.3ad mode, all the physical and virtual
interfaces belonging to a team have the same MAC address. This MAC
address is the same address as that of the first physical interface bounded
to the team. If the first physical interface is removed dynamically from the
team using the "baspcfg" tool and bounded to the protocol directly, this
could lead to a duplicate MAC address problem on the network. To
properly remove a physical interface, perform the following procedure.
1. Back up the original team configuration script
% cp /etc/basp/team-gec /etc/basp/backup-gec
Note
"team-gec" is the name of the configuration script.
Note
"backup-gec" is the name of the backup script. The name of the
backup script must NOT be prefixed with "team-".
2. Modify the team configuration script to remove the physical interface.
3. Stop the running team.
% /etc/basp/baspif /etc/basp/backup-gec stop
% /etc/basp/baspteam /etc/basp/backup-gec del
4. Restart the team.
% /etc/basp/baspteam /etc/basp/team-gec add
% /etc/basp/baspif /etc/basp/team-gec start
