APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • If multiple interfaces have IP addresses on the same subnet
    and the first interface is down, communications to other
    addresses in the subnet may fail. tcpdump or iptrace/ipreport
    will show that the source IP address chosen was from the
    interface that is down.

Problem summary

  • If multiple interfaces have IP addresses on the same subnet
    and the first interface is down, communications to other
    addresses in the subnet may fail. tcpdump or iptrace/ipreport
    will show that the source IP address chosen was from the
    interface that is down.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The code that chooses the source address for TCP connections
    was updated to try to find an address that is from an interface
    that is up if it initially finds an address from an interface
    that is down.
    

Temporary fix
