Description:

This update for yast2-network provides the following fixes:

  • Improved parsing of VLAN IDs that are longer than one character. (bsc#968692)

  • When an interface is enslaved in a bond the udev rule is modified using the bus_id instead of the mac address but some multiport cards could use the same bus_id. In such cases also the dev_port is needed. Taking this in account the dev_port will be added always when a udev rule based on bus_id is written. (bsc#1007172, bsc#1005721)
