?mne: Retain an IP address on a i/f partcipating in a bridge?
Currently one must unset the IP address on an i/f that is included in a
bridge and
move the IP address to the bridge i/f instead if one wants to maintain
connectivity with
the box. This is a problem for us as one loses all routes. The rename of the
i/f
is also a problem.
Is there a fundamental reason one cannot keep the IP address on one i/f that
is a member in a bride? I only have two real interfaces in the bridge if
that
makes it any easier.
Any pointers where I need to adjust the bride code would be appreciated.
