Subject: Ethernet bridging on MPC8248
Date: Mon, 02 May 2005 11:28:27 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4275F2BB.9050100@radionor.no> (raw)

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
