Network's __create_new_epair_interface function parameter nic_suffix_b is ignored #766
Description
the following code snippet from the Network class :
def __create_new_epair_interface(
self,
nic_suffix_a: str=":a",
nic_suffix_b: str=":b",
mac_addresses: typing.Optional[libioc.MacAddress.MacAddressPair]=None,
**nic_args: typing.Any
) -> typing.Tuple[
libioc.NetworkInterface.NetworkInterface,
libioc.NetworkInterface.NetworkInterface
]:
…
nic_a = libioc.NetworkInterface.NetworkInterface(
name="epair",
create=True,
logger=self.logger
)
nic_b_name = nic_a.name[:-1] + "b" # ⬅️is later called as
nic_a, nic_b = self.__create_new_epair_interface(
nic_suffix_a="",
nic_suffix_b=":j",
mac_addresses=mac_address_pair,
mtu=self.mtu,
description=self.nic_local_description,
)which won't do what we tell it to do
