Hi ! I've a custom board with a MPC8248 with two LXT972 10/100MBit ethernet phys.
The board is running 2.6.9-rc1, and I'm using the FCC ENET Version 0.3 driver with some modifications. My question is : I've tried to get ethernet briding between the two ethernet ports to work. I've set up the following : ifconfig eth0 0.0.0.0 ifconfig eth1 0.0.0.0 brctl addbr br0 brctl addif br0 eth0 brctl addif br0 eth1 ifconfig br0 192.168.0.222 netmask 255.255.255.0 If I connect a machine to port 0 (eth0) then I can ping the bridge from that machine, If I connect a machine to port 1 (eth1) I cannot ping the bridge. If I connect machines to both ports, I cannot ping one machine from the other, the only thing i can successfully ping is from port 0 to bridge and from bridge to port 0 Is this a known problem with the FCC ENET driver or does it support bridging fully ? best regards Ole Andreas Torvmark R & D Engineer Radionor Communications AS
