From 0ac0949b03cdfc2c06ba997e9b3b890a5ca17b1f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jan Macku Date: Thu, 3 Dec 2020 14:33:07 +0100 Subject: network: add option to keep the link down Some interfaces like Open vSwitch bridges using the userspace datapath, needs the link to be kept down to avoid issues. Add a LINKSTATUS=[down|up] ifcfg parameter to add this functionality. If not specified, the link will default to up as before.
