Hi Philip
that does the trick - thanks. I now have my phones connected directly to
the net5501.
One slight wrinkle which I have not yet resolved, is that whilst adding the
three INT lines and the bridge line to user.conf does indeed enable the use
of a hub, it prevents access to eth0, which means I cannot use the web tool,
or even ping the external interface (192.168.0.124) whilst the bridge is
enabled. If I go in via the serial interface and uncomment those four
settings and reboot, eth0 is available again.
Here is the network config with the bridge enabled:
----------------------------------------------------
coral-pbx ~ # brctl show
bridge name bridge id STP enabled interfaces
br1 8000.000024cb57ed no eth1
eth2
eth3
coral-pbx ~ #
----------------------------------------------------
coral-pbx ~ # route -e
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags MSS Window irtt

192.168.0.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0
eth0

Do I need to add a route between the interfaces, or is there some Astlinux
config that I am
missing.
Thanks
