What were you trying to do that didn't work?
While using the `network_state` variable to configure a vlan on top of the bond the `vlan.flags` is set to `none` .
$ nmcli connection show bond1.1234 | grep vlan.flags vlan.flags: 0 (NONE)
Compared with the `network.connections` variable which leads to:
$ nmcli connection show bond1.1234 | grep vlan.flags vlan.flags: 1 (REORDER_HEADERS)
The same result is obtained with the `nmcli` command:
$ nmcli connection add type vlan ifname bond1.1234 dev bond1 id 1234 connection.id bond1.1234 ipv4.method disabled ipv6.method disabled`
Please provide the package NVR for which bug is seen:
$ cat /etc/redhat-release
Red Hat Enterprise Linux release 9.3 (Plow)
$ uname -a
Linux localhost.localdomain 5.14.0-362.18.1.el9_3.x86_64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Wed Jan 3 15:54:45 EST 2024 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
$ rpm -qa | grep -E 'nmstate|rhel'
rhel-system-roles-1.22.0-2.el9.noarch

nmstate-libs-2.2.23-1.el9_3.x86_64
python3-libnmstate-2.2.23-1.el9_3.x86_64
How reproducible:
- Install rhel-system-roles.network
- Run a playbook to configure a vlan with the `network_state` variable
Steps to reproduce:
Example of playbook:
--- - name: Configure a bond interface with nmstate hosts: localhost gather_facts: false become: true vars: network_state: interfaces: - name: bond1 state: up type: bond link-aggregation: mode: active-backup options: miimon: 100 port: - eth1 - name: bond1.1234 type: vlan state: up vlan: base-iface: bond1 id: 1234 roles: - rhel-system-roles.network ...
Expected results
$ nmcli connection show bond1.1234 | grep vlan.flags vlan.flags: 1 (REORDER_HEADERS)
Actual results:
$ nmcli connection show bond1.1234 | grep vlan.flags vlan.flags: 0 (NONE
I suggested the customer to use the `reorder-headers: true` on the playbook.
It seems there's a discrepancy between `network_connections` and `network_state`:
$ man nm-settings-nmcli | egrep vlan.flags -A11 vlan.flags Alias: flags One or more flags which control the behavior and features of the VLAN interface. Flags include NM_VLAN_FLAG_REORDER_HEADERS (0x1) (reordering of output packet headers), NM_VLAN_FLAG_GVRP (0x2) (use of the GVRP protocol), and NM_VLAN_FLAG_LOOSE_BINDING (0x4) (loose binding of the interface to its master device's operating state). NM_VLAN_FLAG_MVRP (0x8) (use of the MVRP protocol). The default value of this property is NM_VLAN_FLAG_REORDER_HEADERS, but it used to be 0. To preserve backward compatibility, the default-value in the D-Bus API continues to be 0 and a missing property on D-Bus is still considered as 0. Format: NMVlanFlags (uint32)
