Greetings all,
I have two NICs on my laptop: eth0 and wlan0, I tried to bridge them
and use a ad-hoc connection with my cellphone to share the internet
connection, everythings seems OK, but if you tried to ping the
cellphone from the laptop, ARP requests will not get any answer:
# ifconfig br0
br0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:16:d3:f5:85:9f
inet addr:192.168.10.1 Bcast:192.168.10.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1

TX packets:7999 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:0
RX bytes:3693622 (3.5 MiB) TX bytes:1154223 (1.1 MiB)
# brctl show
bridge name bridge id STP enabled interfaces
br0 8000.0016d3f5859f no eth0
wlan0
tcpdump will show the ARP request message again and again, this
behavior is different from MS Windows bridging. Could anyone tell me
why?
How did you set up the bridge? Show us your interfaces file.
