Hi I have created a simple bridge with 6 interfaces and connected it in between a router and a switch. In the router fastEthernet interface I can see errors with CRC. Also in the bridge interfaces like below. eth5 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:10:F3:11:43:AC inet6 addr: fe80::210:f3ff:fe11:43ac/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:142300474 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:156954048 errors:1040733 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:1040733 collisions:2070157 txqueuelen:100 RX bytes:2942761069 (2.7 GiB) TX bytes:3367976736 (3.1 GiB) Base address:0xb000 Memory:df100000-df120000 eth6 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:10:F3:11:43:AD inet6 addr: fe80::210:f3ff:fe11:43ad/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:157287078 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:142138508 errors:620885 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:620885 collisions:3261727 txqueuelen:100 RX bytes:3390946046 (3.1 GiB) TX bytes:2932101998 (2.7 GiB) Base address:0xb400 Memory:df140000-df160000 In some environment the switch side is ok. But the router side is always gives errors like above. There was ebtables enabled and I disabled it in /proc/sys/net/bridge/bridge-nf* files by putting 0. Is this the problem or are there anything else. Thanks signature -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
