I think you need to spcify in the bridge interface in the following
commands.
> brctl addif eth0
> brctl addif eth1
Later you have to configure the bridge interface.
#ifconfig b < ....... >
Once these basic setup is done you can check if the bridge is working
by the follwoing command
#brctl showmacs <bridge-interface>
