Greetings-

The use case is a server connected to a switch (provided, not able to manage/configure), where it has access to three subnets, delivered via ethernet on the link untagged, and tagged in VLANs 2/3. I have a need to bridge the untagged parent interface (eth0) and VLAN 3 (eth0.3), while leaving the VLAN 2 interface (eth0.2) untouched.

Believe me, I understand this is an odd situation, but I'm very curious if it is possible using ebtables or some other filtering/manipulation application to make it work.

Thank you,
