If the port is not grouped, set mark=ifindex. Or mark=0 to have a dflt group for ungrouped ports. Do you see a way to code this up? The only thing that comes to mind is for the swX driver to keep track of mark picked for each bridge brY, but I was hoping you have an idea how to do this without any storage? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
