Luca> [VM-A] ---- br0 ---- (virtual switch) --- br1 --- [VM-B] A bridge is an interface in its own right. Typically I set them up to have several real interfaces attached to them, none of which is assigned an IP address, but the bridge is assigned an address, and acts as a normal interface to the host. Why are you using the bridges anyway, rather than attaching the VM's interfaces directly to the switch? Peter c -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
