Hi, I would like to do some kind of bridge using a tunnel in our intranet, that means, I would like to connect the subnet 191.1.0.0/16 which is physically separated in two pieces with a tunnel in our intranet (144.200.72.0/24). The problem is that I can't configure the hosts of 191.1.0.0/16 to use two different subnets for each side of the tunnel and to use the tunnel machine as the default gateway. The hosts must be on the same subnet. ip tunnel add mytunnel mode ipip remote 144.200.72.28 ttl 64 ip link set mytunnel up ip addr add 191.1.0.0/16 dev mytunnel eth1 is configured to 191.1.0.0/16 and running in promisc mode. How can I tell eth1 to forward all pakets to mytunnel with the original dst address? My idea is to configure the tunnel and to use some bridge between device eth0 and tunl0 (Is this possible anyway?). In the kernal their is some support for a bridge but I can't find the brcfg software (kernal 2.2.14) on the internet. Does anybody have the files? It looks like people are currently working on the bridge software!? Since I use two old 486 for the tunnel, maybe I would be able to write a simple application listening on eth1 and sending it to mytunnel and vice versa. Has anybody a C prototype for that.
