Hi,
I have a fc14 box with two interfaces that I'm having some difficulty
setting up a bridge properly. I have a few kvm guests set up and
running, but I've switched from using NetworkManager to using standard
networking with a bridge. I've modified the ifcfg-eth0 and created
ifcfg-br0 as per the standard documentation, but I think I'm having
routing problems. This is what the network looks like:
[root@fc14 ~]# route

I've left out the loopback for simplicity. The problem is that I can't
reach the br0 device from a server on the eth1 device (the 192.168.
network).
Is this a routing issue? Should I also add the eth1 device to the
bridge? If so, how would I do that?
Also, can you explain under what circumstances a tun device would be
used? Does that have any relation to bridging?
Thanks,
Alex
