Hi,
I set up bridging as described in the freebsd-handbook:
kldload bridge
sysctl net.link.ether.bridge=3D1
sysctl net.link.ether.bridge_cfg=3D"xl0 sf1"
sysctl net.inet.ip.forwarding=3D1
Bridging itself works well so far and I can ping all host from both sides=
of=20
the bridge. Now I have the following problem:
I have to access the bridge itself from both sides of the bridge. So I=20
assigned an IP-address to one of the two involved NICs:
left side --- [ xl0:192.168.1.1 | sf1: no IP ] --- right side
---------- bridge ------------
Now it's possible to ping the bridge from hosts of the left side but ping=
ing=20
from the right side doesn't work.
After that I tested netgraph for bridging. Surprisingly that works well=20
including the access to the bridge from both sides.
The bridge runs FreeBSD 4.7.
If you need more information, please let me know.
Any hints?
Markus
