[Bug 1366890] [NEW] Setting admin_state_up=False on a HA port causes split brain in HA routers

 

Public bug reported:

1) Create a HA router on a setup with two L3 agents
2) Find out who the master is
3) Find out what is the HA port used by the master instance of the router
4) Set it to admin state down

The master instance won't be able to send VRRP messages, but since the
tap device in the router namespace is still up, keepalive doesn't
transition to backup or fault. It remains in the master state. The
backup will stop receiving VRRP messages and will transition to master
as well.
