I wrote a quick add-in to the baselayout net (init and conf) files to add support for 802.1d bridge support. I realize that a separate bridge script has already been created, but I feel as though keeping all network configuration in a single file is a good idea. To use, I added a variable to /etc/conf.d/net called "bridge_IFACE." This is a composite of all of the interfaces which make up the bridge. The IP address of the bridge interface can be set through the iface_IFACE variables like normal. Example: # /etc/conf.d/net: iface_br0="192.168.1.1 broadcast 192.168.1.255 netmask 255.255.255.0" bridge_br0="eth0 eth1 eth2" aeryn ~ # /etc/init.d/net.br0 start * Creating bridge interface br0... [ ok ] * Bringing br0 up (192.168.1.1)... [ ok ] I submit this patch for consideration into the baselayout files necessary. Thank you! Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
Created attachment 44674 [details, diff] Patch for /etc/conf.d/net file
Created attachment 44675 [details, diff] Patch for /etc/init.d/net.eth0
Thanks for the patches - but we already have bridge support in baselayout-1.11.6-r1 *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 55394 ***
