Description
Description of problem:
The workaround for BZ 1854355 seems to be permanent now since BZ 1854355 was closed based on this workaround from BZ 1869886 below.
# if the interface is of type vmxnet3 add multicast capability for that driver # REMOVEME: Once BZ:1854355 is fixed, this needs to get removed. function configure_driver_options { intf=$1 if [ ! -f "/sys/class/net/${intf}/device/uevent" ]; then echo "Device file doesn't exist, skipping setting multicast mode" else driver=$(cat "/sys/class/net/${intf}/device/uevent" | grep DRIVER | awk -F "=" '{print $2}') echo "Driver name is" $driver if [ "$driver" = "vmxnet3" ]; then ifconfig "$intf" allmulti fi fi
If this is permanent then we also need to update the workaround for ifconfig deprecation and future RHEL9 support
ifconfig "$intf" allmulti -> ip link set dev "${inft}" allmulticast on
We should update the comment and ensure the workaround moves into requirements and OPNET-10
