This is not what these Virtual Circuits are - the VCs I mention are ATM vc's, not 'bridging tunnels'. > How to sent _everything_ (e.g. arp) from client1 to client1_router? > I cant use any tunnel. > It's posible with linux ? Well, you can use a tunnel, it's just that you want a 'bridging tunnel', that appears by magic so to speak. Basically you are then a two-port repeater with a long bit in the middle. Now, is this possible? I think it is, I'm just not entire sure how. Perhaps a proxy-arping pseudo bridge does what you want? In that case ARPs are not transmitted over your tunnel, but your tunnel device reacts to ARP requests for hosts it knows about on the other side. If you want a real bridge, you should find a way to create a 'virtual interface' that lives on the remote host, and run a bridge between your regular interface and the 'virtual long distance' one. Perhaps this is possible. Regards, bert -- http://www.PowerDNS.com Versatile DNS Software & Services Trilab The Technology People Netherlabs BV / Rent-a-Nerd.nl - Nerd Available - 'SYN! ..
