[Bridge] bridging in linux 2.4.20 kernel
Hi all
Iam working on Bridging code in linux 2.4.20 kernel. I just
want to know whether this bridge works with two different kinds of
interfaces attached to bridge.
Like
1. a bridge with 802.3 interface and 802.5 interface
2. a bridge with 802.3 interface and 802.16 interface(wireless).
I think the present bridge code in linux 2.4.20 kernel doesn't support
this kind of bridging and this code doesn't do the protocol conversions
necessary. I just want to confirm.
Eagerly Waiting for reply
Vikram.
