Hello, I'm using bridge-utils as part of a Xen installation. I've got a bunch of isolated bridges connecting up a number of virtual machines. I would like these bridges to act more like hubs. That is, instead of keeping track of which MAC addresses are on which ports, I want them to forward frames to all ports always. Is there a way to do this?
