There
are numerous good whitepapers on setting up bridging in Linux. I'll direct
toward a few of them:

Subject: RedHat 9: Bridging FirewallI am trying to build a Firewall using RedHat 9 (Kernel 2.4.20-8) with both of my interfaces in a bridging mode - neither interface being assigned an IP address.This is exactly how on a honeypot would function. But there is definately a difference between the theory of a Honeypot and actually implementing one and getting it to function properly...Since I am fairly new to the Linux OS, it is a little bit harder to know where to look to get the info I need and where to make the proper changes in the OS...My understanding is that RH9 has the firewalling functions built in, but I am not sure what I need to do in order to make it bridge , or how/where to apply the ruleset.Does anyone know how to do this?Thanks, is advance for any input
