Date: Mon, 03 May 2010 16:00:48 -0400 From: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@...cle.com> To: netdev@...r.kernel.org Subject: TCP over lo I've got a bug report about attempting to mount a remote NFSv4 server while the client's lo interface is down. Apparently a TCP connection attempt over lo when it is DOWN results in ETIMEDOUT. If I attempt a TCP connect on eth0 when it is DOWN I get ENETUNREACH. Is this behavior difference by design? Is there some other information I'm missing? Just wondering how to go about addressing the issue. Thanks in advance for advice. -- chuck[dot]lever[at]oracle[dot]com -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
