Hi,

im running

OpenBSD 5.5 (GENERIC.MP) #300: Wed Feb 26 16:28:46 MST 2014
    [email protected]:/usr/src/sys/arch/amd64/compile/GENERIC.MP

Right now i'm trying some network fun.
I am using a thinkpad x201 where i combined iwn0 and em0 to a trunk
failover device. that works without  problems.
now i want to add trunk0 to bridge0 to be able to add an vether and other
taps. i can create that bridge and add the devices but after that nothing
happens.

$ cat /etc/hostname.em0

up

$ cat /etc/hostname.iwn0

nwid ssid wpakey secret up

$ cat /etc/hostname.trunk0

trunkproto failover trunkport em0 trunkport iwn0

$ cat /etc/hostname.vether0
up
dhcp

$ cat /etc/hostname.bridge0
add trunk0
add vether0
up


tcpdump -i iwn0 does not show the dhcp requests from vether0 (iwn0 is
master at trunk0). there isn't any traffic going though the bridge.

is there a limitiation of adding trunk devices to bridges or am i doing the
bridging wrong ?
i am afraid the solution is quite obvious, but i am guessing for serveral
days now ....


thanks
