There is only one bridge instance, br0, which consists of eth0 and eth1.
The wire from eth0 goes to the LAN port of a  linksys router while eth1
is connected to a sun machine by a crossover cable .  eth2 is on a
separate IP network, which is connected to the WAN port of the linksys
router.

Thanks

bridge

You give insufficient info.  Is eth2 connected to eth0 and eth1
in another way perhaps?
