virtual-ethernet interfaces are not exposed to "list_interface --broadcast" completion helper
Closed, ResolvedPublicBUG
Actions

Description

The Linux Kernel treats virtual-ethernet interfaces like regular ethernet interfaces.

As ethernet interfaces support broadcasts and we have a completion helper for broadcasst interfaces, this must be extended for virtual-ethernet interfaces.

Extend list: https://github.com/vyos/vyos-utils/blob/current/src/completion/list_interfaces/list_interfaces.ml#L71
