I have the following setup below: - +-------------+ | br0 | | -> eth1 | -> DSL_1 | -> eth2 | +-------------+ | br1 | | -> eth3 | -> DSL_2 | -> eth4 | +-------------+ | br2 | | -> eth5 | -> DSL_3 | -> eth6 | +-------------+ br0 has eth1 and eth2; br0 has no ip address br1 has eth3 and eth4; br0 has no ip address br2 has eth5 and eth6; br0 has no ip address The traffic of DSL_1 ISP will pass thru br0. The traffic of DSL_2 ISP will pass thru br1. The traffic of DSL_3 ISP will pass thru br2. I have a question. Is it ok I do it as above in 1 system with 3 bridges or separate it to 3 system with each system have their own bridge? Regards, ro0ot
