We have Debian 10, it has two physical interfaces which we bridge to KVM.

The issue I have is, when I shutdown the port from my virtual operating system or I disconnect the cable the birdge and physical interface of the host image (Debian 10) still shows up. and in virtual machine its shows up as well . what is could be reason? Below is my network config file.

# Backplane ("internal") network interface
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet manual

auto br0
iface br0 inet static
        address 192.168.0.4
        netmask 255.255.255.0
        bridge_ports eth0
        bridge_stp off
        bridge_fd 0
        bridge_maxwait 0

# Front panel (RJ45) network interface
auto eth1
iface eth1 inet manual

auto br1
iface br1 inet static
        address 192.168.1.4
        netmask 255.255.255.0
        gateway 192.168.1.1
        bridge_ports eth1
        bridge_stp off
        bridge_fd 0
        bridge_maxwait 0

  • Please show full `ip link` output on the host (put it [into the question](https://serverfault.com/posts/1121011/edit)). – Nikita Kipriyanov Jan 24 '23 at 15:04
  • Hello Nikita, i have added the output and put it into my question, and also i have edited about my issue, just checked that in virtual machine its shows up as well even the cable disconnected – Himanshu Dua Jan 25 '23 at 19:33
