Description Ladislav Zitka 2021-08-16 14:21:13 UTC
I have 1gbit and 10gbit network. I would like to bridge them, there is nice article here on this: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Network_bridge

but I noticed in 2 documentations of network manager that it can do it as well:
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/25/html/Networking_Guide/ch-Configure_Network_Bridging.html
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/7/html/networking_guide/sec-configure_network_bridging_using_a_gui

But I cannot see such Brige tab on mine.
net-misc/networkmanager connection-sharing dhcpcd gnutls iwd resolvconf nftables -systemd -teamd iptables
Installed versions: 1.32.4

is it missing or disabled in Gentoo?

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.open networkmanager
2.add etnernet 

Actual Results:  
no bridge tab seen

Expected Results:  
bridge config tab appear

Virtual connections (bond, bridge, team, vlan) - seem to have - appeared on my system after switching to iwd with >=net-misc/networkmanager-1.38.4.
