In the documentation I’ve seen so far a bridge is
created with no IP address for its enslaved interfaces and optionally with an
IP address on the bridge interface. For example, I create a bridge like so: brctl addbr br0 brctl addif br0 eth0 brctl addif br0 eth1 ifconfig eth0 0.0.0.0 ifconfig eth1 0.0.0.0 ifconfig br0 10.0.0.10 netmask 255.255.0.0 This works fine. However if I do the following: ifconfig eth0 10.0.0.10 netmask 255.255.0.0 ifconfig eth1 10.1.0.10 netmask 255.255.0.0 ifconfig br0 0.0.0.0 the bridge gets created but I can’t ping the IP
addresses of the enslaved interfaces. With the above configuration I am
assuming that the enslaved interfaces still behave independently of the bridge,
can be assigned IP addresses and participate in routes. My question is whether this
is supported and if I should expect it to work. If so, can someone point me to
an example? Thanks. |
