> Are you using hardware that does Large Receive Offload (LRO)? Most As far as I can tell, no. I'm using standard e1000 cards, which I believe don't do LRO. Ethtool -S eth1 doesn't show any counters related to LRO. > hardware doesn't. The other possible problem would be ebtables/iptables > rules. Hmm. This may be the problem. I have iptables rules on the management interface of the box, but not on any of the ports which participate in bridging. By removing iptables from my bootup, I get a properly functioning bridge. Why would iptables rules on one interface affect traffic bridged on other interfaces? I'm presuming it's some kind of interaction with the ip_conntrack module? Any way to stop it from loading?

The bridge itself doesn't reassemble packets, but firewall > rules might. _______________________________________________ Bridge mailing list Bridge@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linux-foundation.org/mailman/listinfo/bridge
