Bridge mac address [3.2 only]

Sat Apr 19, 2008 4:36 am

When you have multiple ports bridged in 3.2 there are problems.

3 ports
SR2
SR9
ether1

The bridge recognizes that the mac for the SR2 is its mac.
If you do a scan on the SR2 or change channels, the mac address of the bridge switched to the SR9.
Then after a while it switches back to the SR2 [this is after it kicks you out because the mac address of the bridge changed].


Then I went to telnet line and tried to set the mac address of the bridge to the SR9, but the telnet line does not recognize:

in
brid
print
set 0 mac-address=x

as a valid argument. It says mac-address is not a valid name.

Any ideas? Seems like a bug or a user that is not up to speed with the new configuration of bridges.

you can set admin mac address, in that scenario set it to ethernet.
as it will not leave the bridge, you can connect to all the time
