Cannot ifup vmbr2 (state DOWN)

[FuriousRage]

I just added this to the interfaces file and it shows state DOWN in ip a

auto vmbr2
iface vmbr2 inet static
        address 10.10.10.254
        netmask 255.255.255.0
        bridge_ports none
        bridge_stp off
        bridge_fd 0

How come this vmbr2 cannot get the state up with this settings?

hi,
what says the output of `ifreload -a` command?

specifically ifreload -a shows nothing, just goes back to a prompt again.

But i figured it out, i need to add that vmbr to a vm, then it automatically became up, even with the vm off.
