Hi! I want to migrate from 2.2.X to 2.4.X bridging code. My intention to do it this way:
1) get linux-2.4.12 2) get all patchlets from http://bridge.sourceforge.net/devel/bridge-nf/20010907-2/ 3) patch all these patchlets, copy br_passthrough.c to net/bridge/netfilter/ 4) compile kernel with more or less all netfilter&bridge options as modules 5) reboot the new kernel 6) brctl addbr br0 brctl addif br0 eth0 brctl addif br0 eth1 ifconfig eth0 0.0.0.0 ifconfig eth1 0.0.0.0 ifconfig br0 1.2.3.4 broadcast 1.2.3.127 netmask 255.255.255.128 up echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward 7) iptables -A FORWARD -j LOG well on part 7 there will be more of course. But this is the right thing. I don't need [SD]NAT. Is this the right path or will I have big problems with this setup? Thanks a lot for any hints and tips, best wishes Norbert ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Norbert Preining <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> University of Technology Vienna, Austria gpg DSA: 0x09C5B094 ----------------------------------------------------------------------- GREELEY (n.)
