Hi, I have created two veth pairs using fedora19. Firstpair: qeth0, qeth1 Secondpair: reth0, reth1 The commands used were ip link add
qeth0 type veth peer name qeth1 ip link add
reth0 type veth peer name reth1 I have verified that whatever I write to qeth0, appears on qeth1 (and vice versa). And whatever I write to reth0, appears on reth1 (and viceversa) Now I create a linux bridge called ‘mylinuxbridge’ brctl addbr mylinuxbridge I add qeth0 as one of the interfaces to the above bridge. I also add reth0 to the above bridge. brctl addif mylinuxbridge qeth0 brctl addif mylinuxbridge reth0 Ofcourse I do an ifconfig up of all the interfaces and the bridge. So we have something like this – qeth1----qeth0---mylinuxbridge---reth0----reth1 Now I write something on qeth1, I see using tcpdump that the packet arrives on qeth0. Now I expect the linux bridge to pass on the packet to reth0, but I don’t get anything at reth0 (and consequently nothing at reth1) Can somebody tell me where I am going wrong Regards -Prashant =============================================================================== Please refer to http://www.aricent.com/legal/email_disclaimer.html for important disclosures regarding this electronic communication. =============================================================================== |
