Description

I updated to 2.4.1 tonight forgetting about the PPPoE over VLAN issue so I started changing my WAN interface and then I lost all connectivity. Thankfully I have a management network and I could get into the router and poke around. I discovered that my lagg0 interface's ethernet address was set to 00:00:00:00:00:00. Any VLAN assignment to the LAGG seemed to trigger the ethernet address to change to 00:00:00:00:00:00. Manually setting the ethernet address back to what it's supposed to be or changing the LAGG members fixed the issue (once you flush your arp table).

This is how it looks when it's working properly:

[2.4.1-RELEASE][samuelkadolph@gw1.ottawa.samuelkadolph.com]/home/samuelkadolph: ifconfig igb1
igb1: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500

    laggproto lacp lagghash l2,l3,l4
    laggport: igb1 flags=0<>
    laggport: igb2 flags=1c<ACTIVE,COLLECTING,DISTRIBUTING>

And when it's broken:

[2.4.1-RELEASE][samuelkadolph@gw1.ottawa.samuelkadolph.com]/home/samuelkadolph: ifconfig lagg0
lagg0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500
    options=6500bb<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING,JUMBO_MTU,VLAN_HWCSUM,VLAN_HWFILTER,VLAN_HWTSO,RXCSUM_IPV6,TXCSUM_IPV6>
    ether 00:00:00:00:00:00
    inet6 fe80::230:18ff:fecb:f9ba%lagg0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0xd
    nd6 options=21<PERFORMNUD,AUTO_LINKLOCAL>
    media: Ethernet autoselect
    status: active
    groups: lagg
    laggproto lacp lagghash l2,l3,l4
    laggport: igb1 flags=0<>
    laggport: igb2 flags=1c<ACTIVE,COLLECTING,DISTRIBUTING>

And manually setting the ethernet address fixes the issue:

[2.4.1-RELEASE][samuelkadolph@gw1.ottawa.samuelkadolph.com]/home/samuelkadolph: sudo ifconfig lagg0 ether 00:30:18:cb:f9:ba
[2.4.1-RELEASE][samuelkadolph@gw1.ottawa.samuelkadolph.com]/home/samuelkadolph: ifconfig lagg0
