...ridge.) When a static entry is added it should overwrite a non-static entry. I am going to try to fix this in br_fdb.c and post a patch (ppc kernel 2.4.21-pre4), but I wanted to see if anyone had any advice that would save me some work or help me do a better job.

...ork with 2.6 rather than 2.4? I'm truly sorry, but I get paid to work with 2.4. My employer understands the value of giving back to the open source community, and this is what we have at the moment.

Ahoy, I've encountered some confusing semantics with using PACKET(7) sockets on bridge-enslaved interfaces. Specifically, if my socket accepts all types of frame (bind() to ETH_P_ALL) then it gets all packets; but if it accepts any specific type (e.g. ETH_P_IP), then it receives no packets at all. That is how it's coded in net/core/dev.c's netif_receive_skb(). First ETH_P_ALL

I need some help understanding a strange bridge performance problem I am seeing. Maybe I am making more out of this than I need to. I need your opinions. The setup: The first configuration is two machines connected via a cross over cable: Machine A <====> Machine B The second configuration is two machines with a Linux bridge between them: Machine A <===> Linux Bridge

I have a bridge that has gigabit interfaces. The machine in question has the fun job of being a Bridge, Firewall and SMB server. Both of the Gigabit interfaces are connected to workstations directly via Xover cable (well MDI-X to be exact). My question is, if I enable jumbo frames on the gigabit interfaces will that make any difference in overall transfer rate of the bridge? I was thinking it

Hi, What is the easiest way to bridge between two user-space processes that talk directly to Ethernet interfaces? I have two applications that write/read Ethernet frames to/from Linux Ethernet ports (e.g. eth0). The applications can successfully talk to each other when they run on two machines connected over Ethernet. I would like to be able to test them on a single machine without employing

Dear Sir, I was trying to install bridge as we are installing scps gateway in our testbed.This requires us to install the bridge. Our Linux version is 2.4.18 ~3 and we are using redhat 7.2 Please let me know which is the bridge I should install and how to configure it. Before configuring the bridge what I should check in my configuration. Thanks for your time, Sincerely Rama ===== I hear

Adding an STP state seems like a bad idea. Aren't br->stp_enabled and (dev->flags & IFF_UP) sufficient to determine whether check_link() should reenable a port? > -----Original Message----- > From: bridge-bounces@lists.osdl.org > [mailto:bridge-bounces@lists.osdl.org] On Behalf Of Mark Ruijter > Sent: Tuesday, July 20, 2004 7:25 AM > To: Stephen Hemminger > Cc:
