Hi,
I have noticed that after a /etc/init.d/network restart the qmimux interface increments (not always). It clears after a reboot but my main concern is that keep adding qmimux interface may have other implications in the performance. I’m using the mwan3 for managing the failover and FW 07.07.1
Here’s the output of logread

Here’s the function incrementing the id.
get_last_mux_id() {
local tid interface
ifid=0
tid=0
for interface in /sys/class/net/qmimux*; do
tid="$(cat "${interface}/qmap/mux_id" 2>/dev/null | awk '{printf "%d", $1}')"
[ "$tid" != "" ] && [ "$tid" -gt "$ifid" ] && ifid="$tid"
done
let "ifid++"
}
...
#Create new qmimux interface
get_last_mux_id
echo "$ifid" > "/sys/class/net/${ifname}/qmi/add_mux" 2>/dev/null
get_qmimux_by_id "$ifid"
#~ Connectivity part----------------------------------------------------
echo "Calculated qmimux ifname: $qmimux"
Here’s the output of ip link show
9: wwan0: <POINTOPOINT,MULTICAST,NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 4096 qdisc fq_codel state UNKNOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000

Can’t we use the already existing qmimux interface (rm the let ifid++) or maybe delete the old interface given that it’s Down
Thanks
