[Bug 905660] Re: [ifupdown] ipv6 refuse vlan interfaces

[Stéphane Graber]

Vivien: As stated above, the bug was fixed in Precise, not in Oneiric.

Whether we backport it to Oneiric will depend on how critical it's and if it can be bundled with other fixes.
I'd at least wait for beta3 to land in Precise before considering more fixes for Oneiric.

  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Package: ifupdown
  Version: ifupdown 0.7~alpha5.1ubuntu5
  Severity: normal

  ifupdown (0.7~beta1) correct this bug :
      * Accept VLAN interface names (Closes: #632902).

  The interfaces file: (/etc/network/interfaces)
  auto eth0.77
  iface eth0.77 inet static
          address 192.168.1.50
          netmask 255.255.255.0
          gateway 192.168.1.1
  iface eth0.77 inet6 static
          address 2a01:6e00:1111:1111::2
          netmask 64
          gateway 2a01:6e00:1111:1111::1 

  => IPv4 is OK with VLAN77
  => IPv6 not mont with VLAN77  (IPv6 ok without VLAN)
