Yes, that's totally correct. I want to receive an IP on my eth1 so my UBUNTU server is in the same subnet as desktop A and notebook A. By bridging eth0 and eth1 of UBUNTU SERVER, the IP packets on eth0 will be forwarded on eth1 to the router, so my printer can ask for a DHCP OFFER message, by sending a DHCP DISCOVER on the switch. That switch will send the message to eth0 of UBUNTU SERVER whichs forwards (bridging!) the packet on eth1 to the router. The router sends a DHCP OFFER back to eth1 of UBUNTU SERVER, which eventually forwards (bridging!) the message back to switch (and so on to the printer :-)) _______________________________________________ Bridge mailing list Bridge@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linux-foundation.org/mailman/listinfo/bridge
