Bridge mac address [3.2 only]
Posted: 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.
