This breaks (at least for me :-) userspace (ip link show parsing scripts). It is easy to solve, so not a big problem. I am using Ubuntu 14.04. Is this user visible change intended? Thank you and best regards Ulrich -- |----------------------------------------------------------------------- | Ulrich Gemkow | University of Stuttgart, Germany | Institute of Communication Networks and Computer Engineering (IKR) |-----------------------------------------------------------------------
