Hi Broke Great this worked, I did not have the interface turned up.. creating ifconfig.wmx file for each interface with "up" in them did it

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
