Unfortunately i cannot help much on this until i have the time to setup a system and test it (maybe sometime in july, hopefully before 4.1 release) This said: > sysctl -w net.link.ether.bridge_cfg=dc0:1,dc1:0,dc2:1 saying "dc1:0" does not mean it is not used, it means it is used on cluster 0 (which, when i have the time to commit my VLAN-bridge stuff, will correspond to a TRUNK interface). To avoid using an interface for bridging, simply omit it from the list. However, the code should be a bit smarter and if a cluster only has one interface then that interface should not be put in promisc mode. cheers luigi -----------------------------------+------------------------------------- Luigi RIZZO, luigi@iet.unipi.it .
