I have a setup more or less like what I think you are interested in: 1 uplink
port and 3 bridged ports.
The uplink port is just marked up in its ifconfig file and gets its IP via dhcp
from upstream.
Only one of the 3 bridged ports is assigned an IP; the rest are just marked up
in their ifconfig files. All four ports have individual ifconfig files.
My ifconfig.bridge0 file looks like this:
create
!brconfig $int \
add wm1 \
add wm2 \
add wm3 \
up
Whatever is plugged into any of the 3 bridged ports just communicate amongst
themselves just like a “real” switch.
I hope this helps (and is close to what you need).
Cheers,
Brook
