cloned_interfaces=bridge0

ifconfig_bridge0=addm sk0 addm sk1 up

Stupid question, but if you connect the 2 Linux boxes directly
(without the FreeBSD bridge in between) can they ping eachother?

Are you using properly crossed cables?

On the FreeBSD box, you can tcpdump(8) and see the packets moving:
tcpdump -i sk0 and tcpdump -i sk1 and you will see the pick request
and ping echo packets.

Hi,

  Are you using properly crossed cables?
 Isnt it enough check for the  that two linux can ping each other..
 
Yes and no. You must used crossed Ethernet cable between your FreeBSD
bridge and each of your Linux boxes.

As someone suggested, what is ifconfig saying on the FreeBSD box? You
should see that both sk0 and sk1 have a status: active. Else it means
you have a cable problem.

An example of ifconfig for a bridge (FreeBSD 4.xx):

fxp0: flags=89c3UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,NOARP,PROMISC,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST mtu 1500
ether 00:07:e9:xx:xx:xx
media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX full-duplex)
status: active
fxp1: flags=89c3UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,NOARP,PROMISC,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST mtu 1500
ether 00:07:e9:yy:yy:yy
media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX full-duplex)
status: active

Once you make sure that both interfaces on your FreeBSD box are up and
running, you can procced to the next step:

  On the FreeBSD box=2C you can tcpdump(8) and see the packets moving:
  tcpdump -i sk0 and tcpdump -i sk1 and you will see the pick request
  and ping echo packets.
 it says arp: who has 192.168.0.4 tell 192.168.0.5

You'd need to give more information about your connection; something
like:

Linux 192.168.0.4 --- sk0 FreeBSD sk1 --- Linux 192.168.0.5

And you should also specify if ou where tcpdump'ing on interface sk0
or sk1. Once your bridge is working, you will get the same thing for
tcpdump on both interfaces.

Hi,
   
   
Are you using properly crossed cables?
   
Isnt it enough check for the that two linux can ping each 
other..

   
Yes and no. You must used crossed Ethernet cable between your 
FreeBSD

bridge and each of your Linux boxes.
   
Frankly i am not sure about the cables type but they works PC to
  PC connectivity.
   
As someone suggested, what is ifconfig saying on the FreeBSD 
box? You
should see that both sk0 and sk1 have a status: active. Else 
it means

you have a cable problem.
   
   
sk0: flags=8943UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,PROMISC,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST
  metric 0 mtu 1500
   
options=bRXCSUM, TXCSUM, VLAN_MTU
ether 00:0a:5e:1a:69:25
media: Ethernet autoselect (1000baseTX full-duplex, flag0, 
flag1,

  flag2)
status: active
   
   
   
   
   
sk1: flags=8943UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,PROMISC,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST
  metric 0 mtu 1500
   
options=bRXCSUM, TXCSUM, VLAN_MTU
ether 00:0a:5e:1a:67:ee
media: Ethernet autoselect (1000baseTX full-duplex, flag0, 
flag1,

  flag2)
status: active
   
   
   
here is the ifconfig output for the bridge interface:
   
bridge0: flags=8943UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST 
metric

  0 mtu 1500
   
options=bRXCSUM, TXCSUM, VLAN_MTU
ether 0a:54:d7:7e:aa:66
   
inet 192.168.0.1 netmask 0xff00 broadcast 192.168.0.255
   
id 00:00:00:00:00:00 priortiy 32768 hellotime 2 fwddelay 15
   
maxage 20 holdcnt 6 proto rstp maxaddr 100 timeout 1200
   
root id 00:00:00:00:00:00 priority 32768 ifcost 0 port 0
   
   I think ifconfig bridge0 should list member interfaces. Did you add
  them?
 
  ifconfig bridge0 addm sk0 addm sk1 up
  ifconfig sk0 up
  ifconfig sk1 up
 
  this configuration exists in rc.conf
 
 
 if ifconfig doesn't print out something like this:

 bridge0: flags=8843UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST metric 0 
mtu

 1500
 ether 4a:be:26:65:75:06
 id 00:00:00:00:00:00 priority 32768 hellotime 2 fwddelay 15
 maxage 20 holdcnt 6 proto rstp maxaddr 100 timeout 1200
 root id 00:00:00:00:00:00 priority 32768 ifcost 0 port 0
 member: sk0 flags=143LEARNING,DISCOVER,AUTOEDGE,AUTOPTP
 ifmaxaddr 0 port 1 priority 128 path cost 200
 member: sk1 flags=143LEARNING,DISCOVER,AUTOEDGE,AUTOPTP
 ifmaxaddr 0 port 2 priority 128 path cost 20

 Then you need to add the member interfaces.

i noted that, following information is missing
 member: sk0 flags=143LEARNING,DISCOVER,AUTOEDGE,AUTOPTP
 ifmaxaddr 0 port 1 priority 128 path cost 200
 member: sk1 flags=143LEARNING,DISCOVER,AUTOEDGE,AUTOPTP
 ifmaxaddr 0 port 2 priority 128 path cost 20

Now i need to know how to add the interfaces..?
Any command do u knw and can help me..?

Regards!!!

Thanks a lot dear..
it worked. but i m still confused that i have the alternative configuration in 
rc.conf as per guideline here on this page:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/handbook/network-bridging.html
it should have worked, but it did not. and here with these commands, it is 
working.. I am able to get reply to ping

Thanks a lot

Make sure you got the full config in there adjusted to your settings:

cloned_interfaces=bridge0
ifconfig_bridge0=addm fxp0 addm fxp1 up
ifconfig_fxp0=up
ifconfig_fxp1=up

And that you've rebooted.  Assuming you've done those steps correctly, 
it should work.  Generally issue's like that are rooted in typo's and 
misconfigurations.  As your typo count gets incremented,  you will learn 
humility.  ;)  Least that's how it was for me.  Another good rule of 
thumb is if you're following the handbook and it's still doesn't work 
then you're not following the handbook.


Glad it works for you.
