Re: Bridging Broken in 1.2?

[Gary Allan <dragonfly@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

I've reported this problem before. The loadable bridge module in 
DragonFly is broken in that ARP is not handled correctly. The DragonFly 
box is unreachable from the bridged interfaces that have no IP address 
defined.

http://leaf.dragonflybsd.org/mailarchive/submit/2005-03/msg00128.html

The solution is to build a custom kernel with "options BRIDGE" defined.

Joerg in his follow up said he doesn't want to support bridging as a 
module just yet.

Regards

Gary
