Hello,
I want to install a Bridge between our dsl-router and company network. Major task should be traffic shaping but an extra firewall wouldn't be that bad.
What about ebtables, brctl and mrtg? See http://ebtables.sourceforge.net and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/mini/Bridge/index.html
I found that in the standard kernel bridge is compiled as module and I have no problem in loading the module, but I did not find any point to start configure the bridge! Has anybody out there build a bridge with SuSE 8.2 (or higher) and could tell me some links and hints to configure a bridge
guido
A very good source of information (in german) is also found at http://www.heinlein-partner.de/upload/Trafficshaping.pdf -- Mit freundlichen Grüßen Dr. H. Rosner Stadtverwaltung Jena Hauptamt / Datenverarbeitung Tel: (03641) 49 5502 Fax: (03641) 49 2222 eMail: ros@jena.de
