I am trying to create a bridge network interface off my eth0
i'm on ubuntu 13.10
I've tried several different methods editing /etc/network/interfaces
All my attempts end with me lossing network connection to the machine and I have to rebuild to regain remote access.
Heres my latest /etc/network/interfaces which is currently on the machine and currently unable to ssh to
Code:
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet manual
auto br0
iface br0 inet dhcp
bridge_ports eth0
bridge_fd 9
bridge_hello 2
bridge_maxage 12
bridge_stp off
I have also tried a setup like the following with same results:
Code:
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet manual
auto br0
iface br0 inet static
address 173.230.156.218
broadcast 173.230.156.25
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 173.230.156.1
bridge_ports eth0
bridge_fd 9
bridge_hello 2
bridge_maxage 12
bridge_stp off
post-up /usr/sbin/brctl setfd br0 0 addif br0 eth0
