We have some interest in being able to bridge wired systems to (virtual) STA interfaces, primarily for using third-party traffic generation tools over virtual stations. I was thinking of writing a sta-bridge module that mapped incoming packets on a wired interface to a STA with MAC that matched the source MAC of the packet. All packets received on the STA would be forwarded un-modified out the wired port. I think this would allow someone to create a STA interface with MAC matching a PC connected to the wired port and effectively have it be a transparent bridge between STA and PC. Has anyone attempted something like this before? Any interest in having this feature in the upstream kernel?
