Hello all.
I am still a beginner with ebtables, and would really appreciate your
help with the following.
I am using fedora core 2 as bridge firewall.
My current setup is as follows
+--------------------+ trunk eth0 +----------------+ eth1
trunk +--------------------+
| Vlan Switch 1 |-------------------------------| FW/bridge
|-----------------------------------| Vlan Switch 2 |
+--------------------+ +----------------+
+--------------------+
| vlan 2
| vlan 3
|
|
|
|
PC1
PC2
I want to have PC1 and PC2 on the same subnet, that is, connected
through the bridge.
My configuration is as follows:
vconfig add eth0 2
vconfig add eth1 3
brctl addbr br
brctl addif br eth0.2
brctl addif br eth1.3
ifconfig eth0.2 0.0.0.0 up
ifconfig eth1.3 0.0.0.0 up
ifconfig br up
The setup still does not work. However, if I use vlan 2 instead of 3 in
Switch 2, and replace 3 by 2 in the above configuration, the setup works
perfectly, as if the vlan tag is not stripped.
Is there anything I could do with ebtables to make the original setup
work?
Thanks for your time.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
