Fixed In Version: initscripts-9.03.49-1.el6_7.4
Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Previously, when an alias interface was brought down using the ifdown command, the LABEL variable was not set due to a typo in the ifdown-eth script. Consequently, instead of removing just addresses belonging to the alias interface, all IP addresses on the device were removed. This bug has been fixed, and the script now correctly removes only IP addresses of the alias interface in this scenario.
