Mellanox ConnectX-3 can't create vlan

However, it doesn't look like Ubuntu 18.04 includes the fix, as the version of ifupdown is 0.8.17ubuntu1.1, while upstream fixed it 0.8.27. By shipping 18.04 without this fix, all users of such NICs (such as Mellanox ConnectX-3 series) are unable to create VLANs with ifupdown. Therefore, I request that this fix be implemented as a bugfix in 18.04.

In http://www.petasan.org/forums/?view=thread&id=648 I already describe about troubles with Mellanox NICs. I not have any problems with ifupdown2.

But in any case - this must be corrected on the part of the petasan, you are right.

Hi!

It looks like this problem was fixed in 2.7.1 (maybe 2.7.0 too, but I don't risk installing versions with .0 at the end 🙂

WBR,

Fyodor.
