Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Jiri Pirko 2014-03-11 16:58:41 UTC
Currently, there is not possible to create bond/team/bridge without any slave/port connection in it. nmcli allows to do it. There is no reason why this should not be possible in nm-connection-editor.

Comment 1 Jirka Klimes 2014-03-19 09:52:31 UTC
Bridge connections can be created without slaves in nm-connection-editor.

The code allowing that also for bond and team is available in upstream branch
jk/rh1075198-editor-team-bond  (network-manager-applet repository)

Comment 2 Dan Williams 2014-03-20 23:42:30 UTC
I agree that bond/team should be able to be created without slaves and that bridge/bond/team should be consistent with each other.

Patch looks good to me.
