Hi all,

I had installed vmware 2.x on my 4.5-RELEASE with bridged networking,
but now that I have upgraded to 4.7-STABLE I seem to have problems
setting up the bridge on the interface.
I have noticed a slight change in /etc/sysctl.conf where in the old
version I had the command sysctl in front of every value that I wanted
to set, now the file should only contain the value right?
anyways, when I do:
sysctl net.link.ether.bridge_cfg=xl0:0,vmnet1:0
sysctl net.link.ether.bridge=1

my network connection just drops, I cant reach my router anymore.
any changes in bridging?

thanks,

Ed.
