Issue

  • When performing a network cable pull (failover) test on Node1:e0b, the LIF(test_lif:XX.XX.XX.01) fails over to Node2:e0b.
  • After failover, connectivity from the LIF(test_lif:XX.XX.XX.01) to the gateway becomes unstable or unreachable.
  • Other failover scenarios (e.g., Node1:e0a or Node2:e0b cable pulls) do not exhibit this issue.
  • When both LIFs are migrated to Node2 (takeover), gateway connectivity is normal.
  • The issue only occurs when test_lif:XX.XX.XX.01 is migrated individually.
