Hi Lennert,
I've posted a msg. earlier for following configuration.

bridge br0 ( 168.192.2.1)
        has eth1 and eth2

and iptable rule
        iptables -A INPUT -i eth2 -j ACCEPT

My assumption was, when bridge code puts pkt from eth1 to eth2, for eth2
it is a incoming pkt. so i can apply INPUT chain. But, after traversing
code, pkt goes from br_handle_frame -> NF_HOOKS -> dev_queue_xmit.
Bottomline, it is a FORWARD path, not INPUT.

Sorry for that. But, is there any way so any arp request from machines
connected through eth1 for 168.192.2.1 ( or any IP) can be replied by br0.
(Can br0 work as proxy arp ?).

I am not sure, whether i am explaining this properly or not. Sorry for any
confusion. let me know, i will be more precise in next mail.


Any help ?

Thanks
 -Kunal
