Re: [Bridge] kernel doesn't support bridge with a ppp interface ?

I'm not sure if this is even possible using standard protocols. Bridging is for Ethernet; PPP is not Ethernet. So this would require some sort of nonstandard Ethernet-over-PPP encapsulation protocol, and would only make sense if the PPP devices at both ends of the link talked this protocol.

This sounds like a job for something outside the kernel, e.g. OpenVPN as suggested or a simpler Ethernet-over-IP tunnelling app.


You are right I think. Thanks.

Regards~
