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 of problem:
Hi. I'm not able to start my vlan interface.

My configuration:
# cat ifcfg-vlan178 
DEVICE=vlan178
VLAN=yes
VLAN_NAME_TYPE=VLAN_PLUS_VID_NO_PAD
PHYSDEV=em1
BOOTPROTO=static
ONBOOT=yes
BRIDGE=br0_vlan178


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
initscripts-9.03.45-1.el6.x86_64

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create ifcfg-vlan178 as I suggested.
2. # ifup vlan178
3.

Actual results:
# ifup vlan178
Error: argument "178:" is wrong: id is invalid
ERROR: could not add vlan 178: as vlan178 on dev em1


Expected results:
Something beautiful... or just vlan178 interface up and running.

Additional info:

Damn it there is one more typo

Thanks for fix. It works for me.
