really? if i remove my ethernet interface i expect all the connections to die.
Nope, this actually works.
Many a moon ago, we did this wrong and yes the TCP connections died.
But these days, definitely if you bring the interface back up with the same IP addresses, it just works and the connections recover. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
