Description of problem:
When I have multiple virtual network interfaces up and running and 
want to down a particular interface, this works fine unless you down 
the first virtual interface that starts. In the case of shutting down 
this it shutsdown all virtual interfaces.

This only happens when the virtual interfaces are assigned different 
IP addresses on the same network / subnet

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Create several virtual network interfaces (E.G. eth0:1, eth0:2, 
eth0:3)
2.Start them individually in numerical order (so that eth0:1 starts 
first)
3.Once all virtual interfaces are up, shut down the first virtual 
interface started (E.G. eth0:1
    

Actual Results:  All virtual interfaces shutdown

Expected Results:  only the interface intructed should have shutdown

Additional info:

This happen on multiple interfaces and only affects virtual 
interfaces on the same network.

Not that you would do this, but to prove a point

E.G. eth0:1 addr 172.0.0.10
     eth0:2 addr 10.0.0.10
     eth0:3 addr 10.0.0.11
     eth0:4 addr 10.0.0.12

eth0:1 has not effect on 0:2,0:3,0:4. However 2,3,4 will all shutdown 
if the first virtual interface started shutsdown. This could be any 
of them.
