Topic: Bridging WAN with OPT1 doesn't work on ALIX  (Read 3125 times)

On an ALIX 2D1 with 3 ethernet ports, with vr0 as LAN, vr1 as WAN and vr2 as OPT1, when I tell OPT1 to Bridge with WAN, no traffic passes. I have global pass-thru (i.e. pass anything) on both WAN and OPT1 in the firewall rules. When I look at the Interface Status, it tells me that OPT1 is "down". This is true on 3 different ALIX boards, and happens when I swap vr0 and vr2 with each other (i.e. LAN is on vr2 and OPT1 is on vr0).

Hasn't this been fixed now with the latest betas (1.3b17 onwards) due to the excellent work by Chris Buechler in replacing the legacy BRIDGE with if_bridge?

It is indeed fixed for the most part in 1.3b18. I'm using an ALIX 2D3 and trying it out. Found another problem though. DHCP doesn't seem to pass through the if_bridge. I'm still looking at this though.
