Network bridge on current.

2000-09-28 Thread Boyd R. Faulkner
I am wondering how to do network bridging on current. The description in the handbook seems to be out of date as the sysctl IODs are no longer in evidence. Does loading ng_bridge substitute for building the kernel with OPTIONS BRIDGE? Thanks, Boyd -- Boyd Faulkner

h, netgraph's bridging code is more direct but it can not do IP filtering on the packets that are en-route. This is because it is a purely MAC-layer service. I am not sure about Luigi's bridging code. I know the dummynet stuff seems to connect with the ipfw code but I don't think that the

Alas, net.link.ether.bridge(_ipfw) are no longer settable via sysctl. That is my main problem. I cannot do what the documentation says. Unfortunately, I cannot even test what I have until tonight as the machine for the other side of the bridge has no video. I stole it, AGP, to replace the PCI

Never mind. I had not updated the boot blocks and was not running the right kernel. That was an adventure! Sorry for the noise and thanks. Boyd On Thu, Sep 28, 2000 at 09:41:15PM -0400, Siobhan Patricia Lynch wrote: On Thu, 28 Sep 2000, Julian Elischer wrote: I would assume that code
