Package now included in VyOS builds - please test

How to build:

$ git clone https://salsa.debian.org/kernel-team/ethtool.git
$ cd ethtool
$ git checkout debian/1%4.19-1
$ dpkg-buildpackage -uc -us -tc -b
$ ls -al ../ethtool_4.19-1_amd64.*
-rw-r--r-- 1 vyos_bld vyos_bld    992 Apr 21 08:32 ../ethtool_4.19-1_amd64.changes
-rw-r--r-- 1 vyos_bld vyos_bld 113986 Apr 21 08:32 ../ethtool_4.19-1_amd64.deb

Using ethtool 4.19 results in:

vyos@vyos# sudo /sbin/ethtool -K eth0 gso off

We use ethtool provided by Debian Jessie (3.16) which is bound to 3.16 Linux Kernel.

EdgeOS uses this node.def file:

Proposing a Cisco like interface:

Already in 1.2.1

1.1.8

vyos@vyos# show service dhcp-server
 disabled false
 shared-network-name foo {
     authoritative enable
     subnet 10.10.10.0/24 {
         default-router 10.10.10.254
         lease 86400
         start 10.10.10.10 {
             stop 10.10.10.50
         }
     }
 }

This can not be backported easily to 1.2 (crux) b/c of jumps in the system@ config version string.

Its already in 1.2.1

This is actually disabllowed by latest Debian/systemd hostnamectl. A migration script is required though.

In addition I never received any feedback from the board vendor.

Assuming this works - please reopen if not

Thanks for reopening and reporting.

@gadams can we find your modifications somewhere?

We now ship Intel ixgbe 5.5.5 driver, maybe you want to test the latest rolling?

Cisco has the interface type Dialer which is used to configure a ton of PPPoE stuff. In addition a dialer is later assigned to a physical interface, e.g. ATM line card or an ethernet port. With this type of configuration a physical interface can be moved easily.

Could you tell us the exact modifications? Or even better - send a Pull Request via GutHub so we could include it into VyOS.

You can try playing around with the priority in the l2tpv3 node.def files. Higher priority means its executer later. DHCP for instance uses 900-something.

I can confirm that as soon as IPv6 is enabled on pppoe0 the interface is no longer renamed from ppp0 to pppoe0.
