Sorry to respond to my own post here:
I meant to remove the up/down statements in the example above. Those
aren't needed either when using "bridge_ports none".
No, that's cool and thanks for explaining. I think the up/down
statements are not needed at all. It seems to work without them -
whether using pre/post line or "bridge_ports none".
Using "bridge_ports none" and then having post line delete the bridge
does however cause message to say the device does not exist.
I am a bit confused about the distros relationship with ifupdown. Isn't
/etc/network/interfaces Debian specific? So I am guessing the ifup/down
is a different program on say CentOS. I should try to stay relevant even
though I use mostly Devaun now.
Cheers,
Simon
