Hi again Stephen,

I think you hit the jackpot! I looked into the driver code and the carrier is not implemented as it is supposed to. Whenever there is a LAN port status change, the change is used to set the carrier. This is the reason why when one port is disconnected, it brings down the whole interface. I've changed that to check the status of other ports before setting the carrier flag. Thank you very much!! You are a big help! Douglas _______________________________________________ Bridge mailing list [email protected] https://lists.osdl.org/mailman/listinfo/bridge
