I am trying to set up a bridging firewall with Red Hat 8.0. I can not get packets to flow from nic to nic.
Topology:
br0
|
|
------
| |
eth1 eth2
Here are the steps I have taken to setup the bridge:
ifdown eth1 ifdown eth2
ifconfig eth1 0.0.0.0 ifconfig eth2 0.0.0.0
brctl addbr br0
brctl addif br0 eth1 brctl addif br0 eth2
ifconfig br0 0.0.0.0
When I ifconfig br0 I can see that rx packets are incrementing but tx packets are not incrementing. Are there any known issues with RH8.0 and brdiging? Thanks for helping.
Andy
