The ip route was not being added as it should be with vlan. Wrong route have been added into the routing table and causing problem in the network. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Change /etc/conf.g/net and add an interface with Vlan, configure so that it have proper subnet and ip address. 2. Start that interface, and check the route if is present. Actual Results: ip route show 192.168.0.0/24 dev eth0 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.0.20 172.16.2.0/23 dev eth0.1 proto kernel scope link src 172.16.3.1 172.16.2.0/23 dev eth0.2 proto kernel scope link src 172.16.2.1 127.0.0.0/8 via 127.0.0.1 dev lo scope link default via 192.168.0.10 dev eth0 Expected Results: ip route show 192.168.0.0/24 dev eth0 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.0.20 172.16.3.0/23 dev eth0.1 proto kernel scope link src 172.16.3.1 172.16.2.0/23 dev eth0.2 proto kernel scope link src 172.16.2.1 127.0.0.0/8 via 127.0.0.1 dev lo scope link default via 192.168.0.10 dev eth0 Saw the different on line 3 (on the actual Result) 172.16.2.0/23 dev eth0.1 proto kernel scope link src 172.16.3.1 This is a wrong route.

This is urgent any comment so far?
This isnt actually a bug at all. the /XX notation is CIDR notation. this is the value of consecutive 1's in the netmask. a /23 is 23 consecutive 1's which leaves 9 bits for the actual host range of any network. each octet contains the bits: 128 64 32 16 8 4 2 1 - which equates to 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 - in binary for your netmask in the 3rd octet. this means that the network addresses for the given subnets will be in groups of 2. ie: 192.168.0.0 192.168.2.0 192.168.4.0 192.168.3.232/23 for example gives a network address of: 192.168.2.0 and a broadcast address of: 192.168.3.255 I think you are looking for a /24 on those networks. I will close as WONTFIX, please feel free to comment.
