Bridge devices no longer fail to obtain an IP address
Previously, bridge devices sometimes failed to obtain an IP address from the DHCP server immediately after system startup. This was caused by a race condition where the "ifup-eth" script did not wait for the Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) to complete its startup. This bug has been fixed by adding a delay that causes "ifup-eth" to wait long enough for STP to finish starting.

I was able to replicate this issue and have resolved it with a patch that I will attach momentarily. The issue was that, if DELAY is not set in ifcfg-br0, the init script would not wait for STP to complete startup before attempting to obtain an IP via DHCP. DELAY is now set by obtaining the forward_delay directly from the interface if DELAY is not otherwise defined. Let me know if you have any questions or concerns about this patch. -Rich Alloway (RogueWave) Created attachment 1206006 [details]

If the solution does not work for you, open a new bug report. https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2018:0983 The issue of a bridge device failing to obtain an IP address from DHCP when connected to a teamed device without an available link, but functioning properly after a network restart, is a common and frustrating problem. This situation occurs when the bridge device is unable to establish a connection with the DHCP server due to the absence of a valid network link. https://2048cupcakes.io/ This comment was flagged a spam, view the edit history to see the original text if required. |
Duplicating the bugs.centos.org ticket here: Description of problem: 2 Ethernet devices are configured in a team (activebackup) and a network bridge is connected to the team device. After a reboot (NetworkManager.service is masked) the network.service reports that the team device is up , but there is no link for the bridge. After "systemctl restart network" the bridge receives it's IP. When the bridge is set to static ip - it always works.
