My box has 13 NiCS made up of 1 onboard NIC and 3 4-port NiCs. I want to make bridges consisting say br0(bridging eth0 and eth1), br1(briding eth2 and eth3), br2(briding eth4 and eth5), and so on. Secondly can I bridge a tun device with a physical device, say tun0 and eth0 bridged to form br0. Thanks, Philologus... ==== This e-mail is intended solely for the addressee.
