I set up an interface alias on my bond0 interface with this file



/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-bond0:0


containing this



DEVICE=bond0:0
IPADDR=10.2.3.60
BOOTPROTO=static
ONBOOT=yes
NETMASK=255.255.255.0


and when I



$ ifup bond0:0 


it comes up fine and I can ping it. However when I



$ ifdown bond0:0


it takes down both bond0 and bond0:0



This seems like a bug, but maybe I'm doing something wrong. How do I bring down bond0:0 without taking down bond0 with it?

          The method you're using of assigning an alias IP address bond0:0 is considered deprecated at this point with Linux kernels.



          IP-Aliasing:
          ============

          IP-aliases are an obsolete way to manage multiple IP-addresses/masks
          per interface. Newer tools such as iproute2 support multiple
          address/prefixes per interface, but aliases are still supported
          for backwards compatibility.

          An alias is formed by adding a colon and a string when running ifconfig.
          This string is usually numeric, but this is not a must.


          The correct syntax for deleting/downing an alias is to use ifconfig like so:



          $ ifconfig bond0:0 down


          I suspect you'd be able to do the same with iproute2's ip command as well:



          $ ip link set bond0:0 down
