been sitting on this service script for a while, and I think it could go into BLFS. I use this to bridge my eth0 with a TAP interface created by QEMU (on bootup, I only use eth0 in the INTERFACES variable, and later on, it add's the tap0 if I startup qemu).
[I know it's not in the form of a patch, but to be honest, have yet to actually dig into the xml format BLFS uses. Thought I'd test the waters before going that far] This package is used to combine multiple network interfaces together, an implementation of the 802.1d Homepage [I think...]: http://www.linuxfoundation.org/collaborate/workgroups/networking/bridge Download: http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/bridge/bridge/bridge-utils-1.5.tar.gz ******** Installation ********** $ autoconf $ ./configure --prefix=/usr --sbindir=/sbin $ make $ make install Installed Programs: /sbin/brctl Installed manuals /usr/share/man/man8/brctl.8 Short Description: brctl: ethernet bridge administration ******** Configuration ********** install -d -m755 /etc/sysconfig/network-devices/ifconfig.br0 cat > /etc/sysconfig/network-devices/ifconfig.br0/05bridge << "EOF" ONBOOT=yes CHECK_LINK=no SERVICE=bridge INTERFACES=eth0 eth1 EOF cat > /etc/sysconfig/network-devices/ifconfig.br0/10ipv4 << "EOF" ONBOOT=yes SERVICE=ipv4-static IP=192.168.1.2 PREFIX=24 BROADCAST=192.168.1.255 GATEWAY=192.168.1.1 EOF ******** Service Script ********** #!/bin/sh ######################################################################## # Begin $network_devices/services/bridge # # Description : Bridge Boot Script # # Authors : Nathan Coulson - [email protected] # # Version : 00.00 # ######################################################################## . /etc/sysconfig/rc . ${rc_functions} . ${IFCONFIG} if [ -n "${INTERFACE}" ]; then boot_mesg "INTERFACES variable missing from ${ifconfig},", ${FAILURE} echo_failure exit 1 fi case "${2}" in up) boot_mesg "Creating the ${1} interface..." brctl addbr ${1} evaluate_retval for X in ${INTERFACES}; do boot_mesg "Adding ${X} to ${1}..." ip addr add 0.0.0.0 dev ${X} && ip link set ${X} up && brctl addif ${1} ${X} evaluate_retval done ;; down) for X in ${INTERFACES}; do boot_mesg "Removing ${X} from ${1}..." ip link set ${X} down && brctl delif ${1} ${X} evaluate_retval done boot_mesg "Bringing down the ${1} interface..." ip link set ${1} down brctl delbr ${1} evaluate_retval ;; *) echo "Usage: ${0} [interface] {up|down}" exit 1 ;; esac # End $network_devices/services/bridge ******** Patch for latest LFS ********** #!/bin/sh ######################################################################## -# Begin $network_devices/services/bridge +# Begin /lib/boot/bridge # # Description : Bridge Boot Script # @@ -10,8 +10,7 @@ # ######################################################################## -. /etc/sysconfig/rc -. ${rc_functions} +. /lib/boot/functions . ${IFCONFIG} if [ -n "${INTERFACE}" ]; then @@ -53,4 +52,4 @@ ;; esac -# End $network_devices/services/bridge +# End /lib/boot/bridge -- Nathan Coulson (conathan) ------ Location: British Columbia, Canada Timezone: PST (-8) Webpage: http://www.nathancoulson.com -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
