Bug Description
[Summary]
Image: iotg-focal-
CDTS running 20.04 Desktop Automated test suite.
During the reboot stress-test, the DUT will come up with a different MAC address, and therefore, a different IP address. This disrupts the automated tests, and sometimes causes CDTS to lose the test session entirely.
Example:
3: enp0s30f4: <BROADCAST,
link/ether ee:a6:98:c7:7c:c0 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
inet 10.10.0.94/24 brd 10.10.0.255 scope global dynamic noprefixroute enp0s30f4
valid_lft 2294sec preferred_lft 2294sec
inet6 fe80::a29d:
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
(after a few reboots)
3: enp0s30f4: <BROADCAST,
link/ether 36:cd:a8:8a:3c:3a brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
inet 10.10.0.243/24 brd 10.10.0.255 scope global dynamic noprefixroute enp0s30f4
valid_lft 2294sec preferred_lft 2294sec
inet6 fe80::a29d:
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
[Steps to reproduce]
Connect DUT to an ethernet network with a DHCP server
Observe the DUT's IP address and MAC address with ip a
Reboot a few times
[Expected result]
MAC and IP addresses should always remain the same.
[Actual result]
Sometimes the MAC address will change, and the IP address along with it
[Failure rate] ~25-30%
