I will try that!
Actually, I’ve accidentally done that shit in Prod. I connected our 10g and our 1g networks with a virtual switch in a Proxmox server. I undid it shortly after that, but it caused a network storm that impacted customers in 2 datacenters.
Ya it came from an exercise about STP Loop Guard. Cool.
Plugging in a VOIP phone to the same switch with both interfaces will have a similar effect if loopguard is not enabled.
