And long as you're will to do the hard work yourself, there's no need to reboot your machine. 1. Create a bridge configuration for each target network devices (E.g. ifcfg-vbr0 for ifcfg-eth0). 2. Mark the ethX device as IP-less and boot-protocol-less (IPADDR=, IPV6_ADDR=, BOOTPROTO=none) and bridge controlled (BRIDGE=brX), configure the bridge device (DEVICE=brX, TYPE=Brdige, IPADDR, IPV6_ADDR, etc) 2. Disable NM on both the bridge and the Ethernet device (NM_CONTROLLED=no). 3. Restart NM. (Or disable it if all your Ethernet devices are bridged) 4. Enable and start network service. (If you don't want to interrupt incoming connections, you'll have to start each network device by hand) 5. Profit. At worse, you'll have a 2-3 second interruption while the bridge assumes the IP address originally held by the Ethernet device. - Gilboa -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
