One thing I forgot to mention: We have successfully sent packets between two vswitches connected to a Linux bridge (LINUX1 and LINUX2 communicate in the example below). But we needed to put the Linux bridge into promiscuous mode on both of the bridged vswitches. (LINUX1) - <private vswitch> - (LINUXBR) - <public vswitch> - (LINUX2) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@vm.marist.edu with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For more information on Linux on System z, visit http://wiki.linuxvm.org/
