The suggested patch ported for the 6.3 package
Pushed as 0.9.43-16. Verification passed with RHEL 6.3 Snap1 (lldpad-0.9.43-18.el6.x86_64.rpm) Since the problem described in this bug report should be resolved in a recent advisory, it has been closed with a resolution of ERRATA. For information on the advisory, and where to find the updated files, follow the link below. If the solution does not work for you, open a new bug report. http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2012-0901.html |
The user may use dcbtool commands to clear advertise bits on CEE DCBX feature attributes (PFC, PG, APP). These are being lost across ifdown/ifup sequences and default values are being restored. The fix is to only set the values to defaults if the user has not explicitly enabled them. This default behavior was added to reduce DCBX configuration but missed this case. The patch below resolves the issue: commit 879e202f0c1817be4e0a70298c962d99a785cfac Author: john fastabend <john.r.fastabend> Date: Fri Mar 2 04:15:22 2012 +0000 lldpad: CEE DCBX: only enable DCBX by default if not explicitly set http://www.open-lldp.org/git/?p=lldp/open-lldp.git;a=commit;h=879e202f0c1817be4e0a70298c962d99a785cfac Thanks, John
